The management of the University of Abuja (UNIABUJA) has commenced the sale of application forms for admission into its Sustainable Development Centre postgraduate programmes for the 2023/2024 academic session.

The Sustainable Development Centre at the University of Abuja is a multi-disciplinary centre that accepts students from a variety of academic backgrounds, including Natural Science, Health Sciences, Social Sciences, Management Sciences, Law, and Arts, among others. This is due to the fact that Sustainable Development Practice Study is an interdisciplinary programme that includes science, technology, arts, economics, history, management, geography, health sciences, sociology, and public administration, among other things.

The programme will draw students who are experienced, engaged, and entrepreneurial from Abuja and other parts of Nigeria, Africa, and around the world. Its rigorous curriculum provides fundamental scientific knowledge, problem-solving, design, and management skills, analytical and decision-making tools, and integrative perspectives. The program’s foundational core curriculum is supplemented by individually tailored specialisation, which draws on the unparalleled breadth and depth of one of Nigeria’s top public universities, the University of Abuja.

The emphasis at the Centre is on practise, with hands-on, experiential learning woven throughout the programme. It emphasises peer learning and is enriched by a student body that is diverse in terms of education, profession, and culture. Students come from a variety of disciplines, including the sciences and humanities.
