Philosophy

Nigeria is becoming an industrialized nation. Many industries will be oil- and gas-based in the nearest future. The chemical industry is still at infancy in Nigeria, especially in the area of local content. Internationally, there is a projection of the dearth of qualified Chemical Engineers in the next decade. Furthermore, by introducing the programme, we hope to train very qualified Engineers that can operate and manage industries in Nigeria and fill the international vacuum very shortly. The training is to produce graduates who are producers, rather than mere consumers, of knowledge by being upon graduation ready-made functional Engineers in industries, research assistant scholars in academia, or successful Entrepreneurs in Chemical Engineering. We are placing them on the leading edge of technology.
