PROJECTS
2020-25 Plan
Petroleum and Chemical Engineering Education Society (PCEES) shall promote, to an unprecedented level, the principles of research and development in the teaching and practice of petroleum and chemical engineering in Africa, including, Nigeria. To ensure the smooth intervention of the PCEES initiative, PCEES shall liaise with the relevant educational authorities and work out the institutional and developmental modalities for achieving its mission. The under listed preliminary endowments and interventions will form the pilot stage by which PCEES will map out its extension strategy to other African universities. Special attention will be given to the area of research assistance to these universities.
