Federal University of Technology Owerri - FUTO Speciality : Agriculture & Forestry
programme: Agricultural Economics

A University that would help you develop the doggedness and perseverance that’s a feature of the scholarly spirit.
During my time, I found this institution to be quite behind in infrastructure, that would really set it apart as a hub for not just great academia, but as a place for truly innovative solutions to be developed via Research and Development.

I am writing out the name in remembrance of the good, bad and fun-filled time the school offered me. As with most schools in Nigeria, FUTO was for me one of the best schools to attend. Yes, the school fee is low, Yes we had cramped spaces such as lecture rooms, and Yes there are cases of students being extorted by lecturers but still, the school offered a whole pack of opportunities. What I do not like about FUTO would be its slow process of switching to a computer-based institution whereby everything can be done online, also its lack of good quality outdoor spaces where students could hang out. I remembered my first day in school like it was yesterday, although it’s been seven years now… had a tough time locating the school, luckily I was not robbed. One year of pre-degree was smooth as a breeze, then the real deal in when I gained admission to the Department of Agricultural Economics… for the school, the first two years, all departments in the faculty have combined lectures and that was terrible because there was no conducive learning environment for over seven hundred students, but as always, the onus of learning lies with the student. From my third year, we had separate classes which were nice. I had some of the best lecturers, who were always committed to their work. My course was a good start to a broad carrier path. Would I recommend anyone to FUTO, ABSOLUTELY!
