Guidance and Counselling is a human oriented discipline concerned with human self- understanding and self-management. Guidance and Counselling as an offshoot of the science of human behaviour is also concerned with human problem solving. Hence, it is regarded as one of the “helping professions”. Guidance and Counselling exposes students to problem-solving skills through an understanding of self and the provision of adequate information for handling various challenging human situations. Guidance and Counselling is designed with the following objectives in view:
a. To prepare students who will work in schools and the society, as well as work as counselling practitioners
b. To produce graduates who will be versed in human development, human adjustment and rehabilitation
