Özet:

In this study, Engineering education and accreditation was assessed as carried out by the National Universities Commission (NUC), the only body that approves courses and programmes, determines and maintains minimum academic standards, monitors universities and accredits academic programmes in Nigeria. The current trends in education enrolment and engineering programs in Nigeria were also analysed. This paper also provides recommendations for policy makers in government and the educational sector on how to redesign, upgrade and modify the existing initiatives to be able to produce graduates that will be able to compete favourably in the global engineering world.
