The world’s population is growing at an alarming rate. Most of the growth takes place in developing countries including Africa. There is therefore the need to expand the present agricultural production in a sustainable manner. There are other complex problems in housing, transportation, production of goods, renewable energy, crime and security, environmental pollution all facing the growing population. There is also need to step up new discoveries in biology, bio technology and other fields, which require Engineering solutions. These solutions should be done in line with globalization and the application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Artificial Intelligence, robotics and other emerging technologies at the same time ensuring local content and the protection of the environment. The curriculum developed along with the new National Universities Commission (NUC) Core Curriculum Minimum Academic Standard (CCMAS) is aimed at producing young Engineers that are equipped with modern Engineering knowledge and skills to tackle these challenges in design, production, maintenance and management so as to place mankind in continual and sustainable development.
