Education & Chemistry is a dual-discipline programme that equips students with strong foundations in chemical sciences alongside professional pedagogical training. Students explore core chemistry subjects including organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry, while simultaneously developing competencies in curriculum development, classroom management, and educational psychology. The programme prepares graduates to translate complex scientific concepts into meaningful learning experiences at secondary and tertiary levels. Career opportunities in Nigeria are diverse, spanning secondary school chemistry teaching, educational administration, curriculum development with state and federal ministries of education, and roles in chemical industries requiring science communication expertise. Graduates may register with the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN) for professional certification, while those pursuing further specialisation can align with the Chemical Society of Nigeria (CSN).
