Author: Glenn E. Schweitzer
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Educational exchanges
Languages : en
Pages : 69
Book Description
This report analyzes (a) the characteristics and capabilities of the principal institutions that comprise the science and technology infrastructure in Nigeria, (b) the potential contribution of these institutions to industrial development, and (c) opportunities for bilateral cooperation between these institutions and institutions in the United States. Two companion reports analyze similar activities in Malaysia and Colombia. A fourth report presents a cross-country comparison of some of the principal findings in the three country reports. A final report describes the methodology used in carrying out the country studies. Special attention has been given to the interactions among these institutions and between their activities and the activities of production organizations. The emphasis is on science and technology activities which relate directly and indirectly to manufacturing; to some aspects of agriculture; to the physical infrastructure needed to support industrial development, including transportation, communication, power, and water systems; to development of the natural resource base; and to the education and training of science and technology professionals and skilled labor. Science and technology directed to medicine, public health, reproductive biology, and nutrition are not considered.

Information and Communication Technologies in Nigeria
Author: Patience Idaraesit Akpan-Obong
Publisher: Peter Lang
ISBN: 9781433103100
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
In recent years, information and communication technologies (ICTs) have been linked with socioeconomic development with the assumption that they can be harnessed for economic growth in developing countries and facilitate integration into the global information society. However, very few studies in the ICT-for-development field examine the direct connections between ICTs and socioeconomic growth. Information and Communication Technologies in Nigeria: Prospects and Challenges for Development is a compelling account of the development of ICTs in Nigeria. It examines the ICT policy framework and the societal context within which application of the technologies emerged and highlights the potentials of ICTs in socioeconomic development. However, this book also demonstrates, through interviews and case studies, that ICTs are not the panacea to underdevelopment; constraining factors in different countries can limit their capacity to succeed. The author employs a rare multidisciplinary approach that makes the book appealing and accessible to a diverse range of readership.
