Five (5) SSC credit passes in English Language, Mathematics, Geography, French and one (1) Arts/Social Science subject.
Geography/French is a dynamic interdisciplinary programme that equips students with spatial understanding of the physical and human environment alongside proficiency in the French language and Francophone cultures. Students explore topics such as cartography, climatology, urban planning, geopolitics, and regional development, while simultaneously developing strong oral and written French communication skills. The combination proves particularly valuable given Nigeria's strategic position bordering several French-speaking nations. Graduates pursue rewarding careers as translators and interpreters for diplomatic missions, geographic information systems analysts, international trade facilitators, and tourism development officers. Those venturing into surveying and spatial planning may align with the Nigerian Institution of Surveyors, while professionals in international relations find opportunities within federal ministries and organisations like ECOWAS where bilingual competence commands considerable professional advantage.
