Dear Sir/Madam,

Please see attached herewith my curriculum vitae (CV) demonstrating my research educational and professional

expertise is in environmental management, urban and regional planning, tourism, and sustainable development. Over the years I

have been applying my interdisciplinary research in these areas. My most recent research focuses on application of technology

and policy for sustainable tourism development.

My research output demonstrates commitment to the principles and practice of sustainable development from diverse

perspectives. The publications emanating from this are over with articles in peer reviewed journals and co-authored books.

Some of my publications have been produced in leading environment, tourism journals such as Environmental Impact

Assessment, and Tourism Management. The books have also continued to provide leadership in the academic areas. I have

received research grants from reputable organisations the results of which have impacted positively on the society.

Since the 1980s, I have undertaken wide range of research, teaching and educational activities in Nigerian and

American institutions. I have conducted an array of research in the areas of environmental management, urban and regional

planning, tourism and sustainable development at the Nigerian Institute of Social and Economic Research (NISER), Ibadan,

Nigeria. I have also taught successfully topics related to urban and regional development, environmental management and

policy at the Universities of Ibadan, Lagos State, Olabisi Onabanjo and Bowen all in Nigeria. In the United States, I taught Social

Impact Assessment as well as research methods in tourism and events management, tourism management and policy at Afe

Babalola University in Nigeria.

In the area of administration, I have served as Head of Physical Development Department for 6 years, Head of

Transport Studies Unit for 2 years and Acting Director General (Chief Executive) for 8 months. I was also a member of Senate at

Lagos State University and Afe Babalola University. At the Lagos State University, I served as the Coordinator of Post Graduate

Programme in the Department of Geography and Planning. These have contributed appreciably towards improved students

application and registration.

With respect to serving the international community, I have served as Nigeria’s Associate Coordinator of the Nairobi-

based African Technology Policy Studies Network (ATPS), this is in addition to membership of relevant professional bodies.

Sincerely,

Yours sincerely,Prof Fe
