FOREWORD

The Higher National Diploma (HND) in Explosives Ordnance Technology (EOT) is designed to replace the various syllabuses used
by training bodies which produce manpower in the different sub-sectors of military personnel of Nigerian Army (NA), Nigerian Navy
(NN), Nigerian Air Force (NAF) and other authorized personnel.

The acute shortage of professionally trained manpower in Explosives Ordnance Technology (EOT) in Nigeria as well as the need to
produce Military Personnel with the ethics of the profession through the acquisition of desirable knowledge and skills informed the
production of this national curriculum.

It is my belief that this curriculum and course specifications which is the minimum requirement for producing professionals with
sound knowledge and skills in Explosives Ordnance Technology (EOT), if properly implemented with the required resources
(qualified teaching staff in adequate number, adequate consumables, training materials, teaching aids) and admission of qualified
candidates into the programme, will lead to the production of the required competent and skilled manpower in the Military sector.

I wish to express my deep appreciation to the Air Force Institute of Technology, Kaduna for collaborating with the Board by funding
the entire exercise for the development of this curriculum. I wish to also express my appreciation to our stakeholders for their
invaluable contributions to the development of this curriculum.

I hope that this curriculum would be properly implemented so as to lead to the goal of producing the required Military Industry work
force of our dreams.

Dr. M.A. Kazaure, mni

Executive Secretary,
NBTE, Kaduna.

GENERAL INFORMATION
1.0 TITLE OF THE PROGRAMME

Higher National Diploma (HND) in Explosives Ordnance Technology

2.0 GOAL AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PROGRAMME

Goal: The programme is aimed at producing technologists that will meet the demand of the Armed Forces and authorised
civilian personnel.

Objectives: Diplomates of HND in Explosives Ordnance Technology should be able to:

a. Safely handle conventional and non-conventional explosives;

b. Arm military platforms with guns, bombs, rockets and missiles;
c. Participate in the manufacture of explosives;
d. Apply the knowledge of approved regulations governing the handling and servicing of munitions and other
equipment containing explosives used in the Armed Forces and those who may be authorised;
e. Participate in assembling, testing, repairing, modifying and installing ejection seat on military platforms and other
equipment containing explosives used in the Armed Forces and those who may be authorised;
f. Handle commercial explosives for exploration and exploitation of mineral and petroleum resources;
g. Collect and analyse data in relation to the use of explosives; and
h. Establish and manage a business in Entrepreneurship Education Development (EED).

3
3.0 ACCREDITATION

Each programme offered either at the ND or HND level shall be accredited by NBTE before diplomates can be awarded either of the
two diploma certificates. Details about the process of accrediting a programme for the award of the ND or HND are available from the
Executive Secretary, Polytechnic Programmes Department, National Board for Technical Education, Plot B Bida Road, P M B 2239,
Kaduna, Nigeria.

4.0 ADMISSION REQUIREMENT

Admission into the HND Explosives Ordnance Technology programme is open only to military personnel of Nigerian Army (NA),
Nigerian Navy (NN), Nigerian Air Force (NAF) and other authorized personnel. Candidates from other sister African armed forces are
also eligible for admission through HQ NAF.

The criteria for admission are:

i. National Diploma (ND) in Explosives Ordnance Technology with at least lower credit.
ii. One year relevant work experience and at least two years with a pass at ND level.
iii. All ND entry requirements.

5.0 ACADEMIC ASSESSMENT AND GRADING SYSTEM

Students shall be continuously assessed by the instructors as the courses progress and these shall be referred to as the Continuous
Assessment Tests (CAT). Students shall also take a Final Test (FT) in each subject at the end of each semester. The CATs shall carry
forty percent (40%), while the FT shall carry sixty percent (60%) of the total marks. Details of the subjects offered in each basic and
advanced course are itemized in this Handbook under the various schools. All assessed subjects shall be graded as follows:

4
 Marked Range (%) Letter Grade Weighting
75-100 A 4.00
70-74 AB 3.50
65-69 B 3.25
60-64 BC 3.00
55-59 C 2.75
50-54 CD 2.50
45-49 D 2.25
40-44 E 2.00
Below 40 F 0.00

The Grade Point System: Results of Semester Examination shall be expressed in terms of a Grade Point System on a 4-point scale.
From the table above, the actual percentage raw score for a given subject is converted in to a Letter Grade and a Grade Point. Each
subject is weighed according to the number of credit units (Hour) attached to it. Therefore, the level of achievement of a candidate in a
semester examination is graded as follows:

a. The Weighted Grade Point (WGP) attained by a student in a particular subject is the student’s Weighted Point multiplied
by the credit unit (CU) attached to the subject i.e. (CU X WP). The WGP is added up to obtain the Cumulative Grade Point
(CGP). The GPA for a semester is obtained by dividing the CGP by the Total Credit Units (TCU) of all the subjects offered
in a semester.

b. The overall performance of a student during an entire semester shall be determined by means of a GPA.

National Diploma should be awarded in four classes:

i. Distinction - CGPA of 3.50 and above

ii. Upper Credit - CGPA of 3.0-3.49
iii Lower Credit - CGPA of 2.50-2.99
iv. Pass - CGPA of 2.00-2.49
