Estate management is a discipline interdicted in Nigeria by professor  Emeritus Umeh J.A. in the year 1962, whose primary objectives is to teach and possible transfer his wealth of knowledge and skills on the profession to the younger generation.

Over the years, it is a very and recommendable fact that the profession is on it’s ascendancy as there are many universities and polytechnics in Nigeria that offer programmes in Estate management leading to qualification as an Estate surveyor and value.

The Nigeria Institution of Estate surveyors and valuers (NIESV) in Nigeria approved accredited twenty-five (25) institution of higher learning for the training of Estate surveyors and valuers (NIESV Enugu State directory, 2010).

Thus, it is once again a very and recommendable fact that the profession is on it’s ascending (making progress) Estate management department was introduced and accreditated in institute of management and technology Enugu in the year 2001, though with few students and very few lecturers. The progression has several branches of specialization, ranging from property facilities management and land administration property valuation, planning and development project consultancy, Estate Agency and property conditions survey and inventory to mention but a few.

Having a whole knowledge/skills of these specialization or services does not just come by more research on the subject matters.

Unlike other department in higher institution of learning, inadequate lecturing and studying material textbook has contributed to the set back of the student in carrying out research and also to the poor performance of the scholar, and graduates to changes encountered in their filled of study.

Estate management department IMT Enugu is facing the problem of insufficient lecturing and studying material text books, this is due to the low number of department lecturers and lack of qualitative   libeary, most lecturers are not perments lecturers and therefore the time they spent with the study are always very short as they are engaged with other activities outsides the school and stud funds. It difficult to ask them questions or subjection concerning the subjects matters and when one lectuers isteaching two or more different courses to three different department of levels he/she must not be accurate in those courses and there by making the teaching complicated for him and the students. Which lends to the poor performance of the students.
