List of Emeritus Professors in Nigeria

This is one post that no reader should miss out on. In this post, we are going to be giving our readers a list of Emeritus Professors in Nigeria.

The list is a bulky one so we are going to segment it into institutions and their emeritus professors with their department.

For the sake of readers who do not know who an emeritus Professor is; firstly, we will let you know who a professor is and thereafter the Emeritus.

A Professor is an academic rank in the University and other tertiary institutions of learning and research worldwide. It is in most cases shortened to Prof. and in Latin, it is translated as “One who professes”

However, an Emeritus Professor is an academic award given to a professor who has excelled in his or her field of research, service, or teaching throughout their time in an institution.

With the above information, readers know who an Emeritus is and can get to know some of them in this post.
