Why some universities do not offer every course
Not every Nigerian university offers every JAMB-listed course. Universities are either comprehensive, covering most disciplines, or specialised, focusing on a narrower range such as technology, agriculture or theology.
The National Universities Commission accredits each programme separately, and the absence of a course in an institution's catalogue usually reflects either the institution's strategic focus or the fact that the NUC has not yet approved that specific programme for the institution. FUTMINNA's current catalogue is concentrated on technology and engineering disciplines which is why Agricultural Extension and Rural Development sits outside the FUTMINNA undergraduate offer.
