Full List Of Research Institutes In Nigeria (2024)

In this post, we have compiled the full list of all research institutes in Nigeria currently in this year 2024 for your perusal. These research institutes in the country were set up for the primary aim of collecting, organising, and analyzing various information in order to broaden the scope of understanding of various topics or issues as they affect the sciences and other relevant sectors in the country today.

According to Wikipedia, a research project may involve expansion on previous works in the field. These research projects can then be utilized to develop further knowledge on a topic, or for education purposes. In order to test the validity of instruments, procedures, or experiments, research may reproduce or recreate elements of previous projects or the project as a whole.

Research Institutes in Nigeria may specialize in pure research or they may lean towards applied research. Whichever the case may be, all are established in order to further improve on the knowledge of certain topics previously vaguely understood. Even though research often implies natural science research, there are also many research institutes in the agricultural sciences as well and a few in the social sciences, established for sociological and historical research purposes in the country today and we shall see them below.
