Details on 2015 UNICAL POST GRADUATE PROGRAMMES Uploaded

Post Graduate School Pursuant to the University of Calabar Degree of 1979, in which is enshrined the desire to "encourage and promote scholarship and conduct research in all fields of learning and human endeavour, and to relate its activities to the social, cultural, and economic needs of the people of Nigeria", graduate education began quite early at the University of Calabar.

It became the pattern in all faculties that once an undergraduate programme had taken roots, a graduate programme soon followed. Graduate studies began in the 1978/79 session when the Board of Post-graduate Studies was set up to organize graduate level courses and research and admit students.

The History department blazed the trail that session enrolling 7 students. By 1981/82 a total of 66 students had enrolled in various graduate programmes in all the existing faculties, except Law and Agriculture. The first group of graduands, totaling 8, took their master's degrees in November 1982 from the departments of Biochemistry, Chemistry, and Geography and Regional Planning.
Students' enrolment in 1991/92 stood at about 1,000 distributed in all faculties and institutes. The Catholic Institute of West Africa in Port Harcourt became affiliated to the University of Calabar in 1988, under the directive of the National Universities Commission, thereby awarding University of Calabar higher degrees in various theological disciplines.
Graduate education at the University of Calabar aims primarily fostering original, creative, and scholarly ability. This is through course work, and problem-focused research which is designed to buttress a sound knowledge and the application of fundamental principles towards an improved understanding and development of the nation's rich natural, social and cultural endowments.
