FUPRE Launches New B.Sc. Programmes for Science and Non-Science Students
FUPRE has added new B.Sc. programmes for both science and non-science students. This move opens doors for young Nigerians aiming to enter the energy sector. Read on for what’s on offer and how to apply.
The Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun (FUPRE) has announced new academic programmes for undergraduates. These additions cut across science and business-related fields, giving more students a way into the oil, gas and broader energy industries.
This step is part of FUPRE’s push to stay relevant and meet new demands in both research and practical fields. Whether you lean more toward lab coats or boardrooms, there’s now a place for you.
New B.Sc. programmes for business-minded students
College of Petroleum Administration and Management
This college is opening four fresh degree programmes aimed at students without a science background. These are designed for those who want to lead or manage within the energy world, not necessarily work in a lab.
Available Courses:B.Sc. Entrepreneurship
B.Sc. Logistics and Supply Chain Management
B.Sc. Petroleum Information Management
B.Sc. Procurement Management
Each course mixes real-world business knowledge with sector-specific focus. The aim? Train students to take up roles in areas like supply chain, business strategy, data, and project delivery within the energy sector.
These aren’t just fancy course titles. They’re built to help students enter growing roles in the energy and logistics space. Think of it as business education with an oil and gas twist.
For science lovers, there’s more on offer too
College of Science
This college now offers three new programmes. They’re shaped for students who enjoy research and want to dig deeper into the science behind energy, health, and the environment.
Available Courses:B.Sc. Biochemistry
B.Sc. Microbiology
B.Sc. Petroleum Chemistry
Students here will not just sit through lectures. The curriculum includes practical sessions, lab work, and real-world projects. Whether you’re exploring microbes or breaking down petroleum compounds, you’ll be trained to solve actual problems in science and industry.
