Developing School

A school with a great potential. Absence of certain infrastructure may limit a students learning and research ability but on the whole, a very worthy experience. There is also need to motivate the lecturers.

Akwa Ibom State University

Akwa Ibom State University is one of the prestigious institution in Nigeria. The University has shaped thousands of grads into world impacting leaders and mentors in their respective field. It has through through highly intelligent lecturers ascertain the transfer of knowledge meaningfully. But, I must say, there are also some slack to the functionality. The University follows a defined curriculum which every year, same things, same way, same courses were taught in the same classroom. It doesn't give chance to keep track of new discoveries or probably push students to discovering one. Student are more or less pressured to cram and digest when required. There's no avenue to give individual perspective but same thing was given by the lecturers. To the end, if I was the leadership of the University, I would ensure the review of the curriculum give chance to new discoveries and then encourage the students to do something with what they learn even while in school.

The course of International Relations

GIPA offers one of the best, if not the best, IR courses in the whole country. In my first year, I used to think that it was not anything special, but over time, I realized how important everything we learn is. The professors are really friendly and they are always on the students' side. The subjects that the course offers are very interesting and engaging, all of them give you the theoretical and practical bases to further develop your critical thinking. The only negative thing about this course is that the campus is very far away from the city center.
