The International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) is Africa's leading research partner in finding solutions for hunger, malnutrition, and poverty. Our award-winning research for development (R4D) addresses the development needs of sub-Saharan Africa. We work with partners to enhance crop quality and productivity, reduce producer and consumer risks, and generate wealth from agriculture.

We develop agricultural solutions with our partners to tackle hunger and poverty by reducing producer and consumer risks, enhancing crop quality and productivity, and generating wealth from agriculture. We have more than 100 internationally recruited scientists from about 35 countries and 900 nationally recruited staff based in various stations across Africa.

The Institute seeks to employ and train young Nigerian Graduates in our diverse Research Support Operational lines at the Institute's Headquarters, Ibadan.  Applicants who are required to have obtained their first degree or Higher National Diploma (HND) within the last four years may not have any substantial work experience.

Graduate Trainee Programme (GTP)
