Philosophy
Objectives
- To put in place curricula that cover broad and dynamic engineering principles, working knowledge of entrepreneurial, marketing and management principles.
- To empower our students with the necessary skills to create value and bring the solutions needed to tackle challenges in the petroleum and allied industries.
- To make our graduates foremost petroleum engineers in the country and internationally through a well-designed competency-based training programme of teaching and research.
- To facilitate the acquisition of practical work experience in the industries.
Program Educational Objectives
The Petroleum Engineering programme aims to enable suitably qualified graduates from a range of engineering backgrounds to:
OB1 Develop knowledge, skills (including transferable skills, such as leadership, motivation, time management, prioritisation, delegation, listening, communication, analytics) and understanding, as well as awareness and “know how”, in the fields of engineering and its related disciplines so that as graduates they will be equipped to enter into self-employment and employment as professional engineers progressing on to Registered Engineer (or equivalent status) or a wide range of other professional careers.
OB2 Prepare them to engage in life-long and critical enquiry with skills in research and knowledge acquisition and an appreciation of the value of education to the wider community.
OB3 Provide them with internationally recognised qualifications which meet and exceed the requirements of the COREN Outcome-Based Education Benchmark for Engineering Programmes in Nigeria and international Benchmark Statements for Engineering for ABET, Engineering Council, UK, etc.
