Education & History is a combined honours programme that equips students with foundational knowledge in pedagogical theory, historical research, and critical analysis of African and world civilisations. Students explore curriculum development, classroom management, Nigerian colonial and pre-colonial history, historiography, and social studies methodology. The programme blends teacher training with deep intellectual engagement in historical scholarship, producing graduates who are both analytically rigorous and professionally versatile. Career opportunities span secondary school teaching, curriculum development with state and federal ministries of education, archival and museum work, and roles within non-governmental organisations focused on heritage preservation. Graduates seeking professional teaching recognition are encouraged to register with the Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria, which regulates and certifies qualified educators across the country.
