OCEANOGRAPHY AND WATER RESOURCES PLANNING
Ocean and water resource has remained a global economic phenomenon from history, and still continues growing rapidly around the world. It contributes substantially to the economy of many countries where massive investments are attracted to the sector. However, not much economic use is made of our water and ocean resources in Nigeria. Much of the fish we consume is imported. Shipping is underdeveloped. Inland waterways transport service is almost negligible. Even the much publicized river Niger dredging project will be no more than a colossal waste of scarce resources, because the problem is not that of much sand at the river bed, but the paucity of water flowing down from the different dams built on the river. There is virtually no viable economic plan for improving the water resource sector. This faculty seeks to attract attention to the nature and characteristics of the water resources industry in most countries, to arouse interest to explore how the industry can be better planned, marketed, and well managed.
Designed for
People who want to exploit the opportunities in the water resources industries, particularly, in management or planning positions in both public and private sectors to tap water resources prospects. It will be very rewarding to planners who wish to offer professional services to promote tourism, fishing, shipping and transport, etc .related to water resources.
Aims
To provide professional training and solid intellectual base, to deepen knowledge and develop skills built upon current techniques and state of the art in Planning and plan implementation, and to open new doors of opportunities to develop expertise in water resource planning, that has remained largely unexplored
Objectives
The programme seeks to produce high caliber international Planning Professionals who possess the requisite knowledge, skills and competence to excel, either as professional planning service providers or as investors and/or executives.

PRODUCTION AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT PLANNING
Production has become a global economic phenomenon in recent times, growing rapidly around the world in the wake of the recovery from the global economic recession. It contributes substantially to the economy of many countries where more and more resources are invested in production. However, not much production is going on in many countries. In fact as desirable as production is, many companies are folding up production or relocating their operations. Nothing by way of relief measure appears to be forthcoming from government. Unemployment threat has become aggravated. This faculty seeks to attract attention to the nature and characteristics of the production industry in most countries, to arouse interest and explore how the industry can be better planned, marketed, and well managed.
Designed for
People who want to exploit the opportunities in the production industries, particularly, in management or planning positions in both public and private sectors. It will be very rewarding for planners who wish to offer professional services to the ailing industry.
Aims
To provide professional training and solid intellectual base, to deepen knowledge and develop skills built upon current techniques and state of the art in Planning and plan implementation, and to open new doors of opportunities to develop expertise in production, that has remained largely unexplored.

Paper 14: KEY ISSUES IN ACADEMIC PLANNING IN AFRICA
Course Code: APL/FP14
Overview
The Nigerian tertiary educational system has recorded substantial expansion in the last decade, in terms of student population and number of institutions. This expansion has however not been accompanied by adequate funding for public tertiary institutions, and quality of teaching and research facilities has been progressively declining over the years. The situation is not better for the newly established private higher educational institutions. Thus the generally-acclaimed high standards with which the Nigerian higher educational system was associated in the past has been visibly threatened, to the extent that products of the system are sometimes rejected by employers, or made to face discriminatory practices by universities abroad when they apply for admission into postgraduate programmes. This course focuses on current key issues.
Aims
The main aim of this course is to enable the student identify the major problems confronting the Nigerian educational system, resolutions of which could ensure better standards and quality for Nigeria higher education.
Objectives
At the end of the course, students should be able to:

Public health concerns have become a global phenomenon in recent times, growing rapidly around the world in the wake of outbreak of deadly diseases, such as Sars, avian flu, swine flu, malaria, HIV/AID, Cancer, etc. They are substantially a drain to the economy of many countries, as more and more health burdens are competing for limited public resources, which could have been devoted to other important needs. The standard of health care delivery in developing countries is generally appalling, in spite of the massive funds voted yearly for health services. Critics raise issues about the spate of frauds and financial malpractices in the management of health. Moreover, there is little attempt to deal with most common deadly disease- malaria fever, typhoid, blindness and others.

LAW AND REGULATION PLANNING
Maintenance of law and order is a global phenomenon central to any nation’s constitution, and is pivotal to good governance around the world. It contributes substantially to peace and economic development of many countries, as it underpins the basis of business relationship. However, in spite of the massive investment in the justice system, the effect on crime rate is negligible; which raises questions about the effectiveness of the entire service.
