Courses Under Geography Degree

On this article, I am going to list out some Geography course outlines in Nigeria Universities which you will study before you can to become a Geography graduate. Normally, a course outline should contain; course name, course description, course hours etc… but I am going to skip that information and go straight to Geography subjects for university students.
