Nigerian Universities That Offers Psychology by Elkiko(m): 3:12pm On Aug 23, 2017 |
LIST OF NIGERIAN UNIVERSITIES THAT OFFERS B.SC AND/OR MSC PSYCHOLOGY Compiled By Christopher Soji Okadonye Psychology as a discipline is still relatively young when compared with other disciplines. Psychology is a social science course. Social science is basically concerned with the study of human behavior. Economics is concern with human behavior in relation to consumption, production and distribution of goods and services. Political science is concern with the study of human behavior in relation to governance. Sociology is basically concern with the study of human behavior in group. Psychology is simply the study human behavior in relation to mental processes. However, the discipline of Psychology in Nigeria is still at the primary stage. This is evident in the number of universities in Nigeria that offers psychology in undergraduate or postgraduate level. Based research, Nigeria has one hundred and fifty two (152) accredited universities as at June 2017. And out of these, only 37 offers Psychology (General). Although, some universities offer Educational Psychology. They include: Ibrahim badamasi university lapai, Ahmadu bello university Zaria, kwara state university Ilorin, University Port Harcourt and Tansian University. But they are under the faulty of Education in the respective universities.
