Publisher's Synopsis
Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Environmental Sciences, grade: B, University of Benin, language: English, abstract: This work investigated the opinions of students towards the introduction of waste conversion education as a course of study in Nigerian Universities. The author seeks to investigate if there are differences between the opinions of males and females students and wants to determine if there are significant differences among the faculties in students opinions toward the introduction of waste conversion education as an university course in Nigeria. Solid waste management has become a major challenge for local authorities in developing countries all over the world. Despite the efforts of the various organizations spearheading political activism and campaigns for change in policies, law, technologies and development to enhance environmental health qualities, the achievements remain minimal. Waste management is an important matter in Nigeria and it is therefore necessary, to look for another effective way through the formal education system.
