dc.description.abstract	Engineering education deals with the training of engineers for the purposes of initiating, facilitating and implementing the technological development of a nation. In Africa, the training of engineers has witnessed formidable challenges ranging from poor funding to inadequate facilities both quantitatively and qualitatively, non-availability of adequate human capacity, brain drain and poor staff training and retention profiles. Others include weak university/industry partnership, defective curricula, traditional approach to teaching, poorly equipped laboratories, non-availability of local codes and monitoring standards for the training of prospective engineers and an inadequate lCT environment.	en_US
