PROGRAMME PHILOSOPHY

The Primary philosophy that guides the training of students is the production of skilled manpower that is adequately furnished with the comprehensive information required, for engaging in Forestry, Wildlife and Environmental Management in an environment characterized by rural setting and adequate land endowment. Such knowledgeable professional manpower has to be produced in an atmosphere with the widest possible human and material resources, through the adoption of effective techniques of instruction, and exposure to the actual practice of forestry. Consequently, this programme provides opportunities for formal training at the undergraduate level for the acquisition of basic degree. These training programmes are mounted through classroom instruction, laboratory practicals, field demonstration, and workshop practice.
