Agricultural Education (Double Major) is a unique interdisciplinary programme that combines core agricultural sciences with professional teacher education, equipping students with both technical farming knowledge and pedagogical skills. Students study crop production, animal husbandry, soil science, agricultural economics, and extension services alongside curriculum development, educational psychology, and classroom methodology. The double major structure ensures graduates are equally competent in agricultural practice and instructional delivery. Career opportunities in Nigeria span secondary and tertiary teaching, agricultural extension services, rural development consultancy, and agribusiness management. Graduates may register with the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN) and align with the Agricultural Society of Nigeria (ASN), positioning themselves as valuable contributors to Nigeria's food security and educational development agenda.
