About Education & Economics

Education and Economics is a dynamic combined degree that equips students with strong analytical and pedagogical foundations. Students explore microeconomic and macroeconomic theory, educational policy, curriculum development, statistics, public finance, and research methodology. The programme bridges the gap between economic thinking and the practical realities of teaching and learning in Nigerian society. Graduates are well-positioned to pursue careers as professional educators, education policy analysts, economic planners within state and federal ministries, or curriculum development specialists with agencies like NERDC. Those drawn toward financial instruction may pursue membership with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria. The programme also opens pathways into educational administration, NGO programme management, and development consulting, making it particularly relevant given Nigeria's growing demand for education sector reform and economic development expertise.
