The General Studies Programme is intended to widen the horizon of students of all disciplines within the university. While hitherto new university students have been exposed to many subjects during their pre-university studies, their university studies will narrow down to allow this fact be a disadvantage to the ability of the students to face varied and challenging life situations in the future. It is in fact the hallmark of liberal education.
In line with this noble objective, Nnamdi Azikiwe University has since its inception tried to organize all aspects of the General Studies Programme to ensure optimal advantage to the students. It has constantly been making efforts to improve its facilities and introduce courses that will be of great benefit to its eventual graduates.
Last year the school successfully organized the second semester examination through Computer Based Test (CBT). Starting from this year (2005/2016), all examinations in the School of General Studies will be through CBT.
The School of General Studies has an array of highly qualified and dedicated lecturers, advisers and models and are ever ready to offer every necessary help to enable the students be successful and enriched.
