About Education & Biology
Education & Biology is a dual-discipline programme that equips students with strong foundations in biological sciences alongside professional training in pedagogy and teaching methodologies. Students explore core areas such as genetics, ecology, cell biology, anatomy, and physiology, while simultaneously developing competencies in curriculum development, classroom management, and educational psychology. Graduates are well-positioned to pursue careers as secondary school Biology teachers, science education researchers, curriculum developers with state and federal ministries of education, or education officers within non-governmental organisations. Those advancing into research or laboratory-based roles may align with bodies such as the Science Teachers Association of Nigeria. Registration with the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria remains essential for professional practice within any formal educational setting across the country.
