The Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics originally started in the then College of Science and Technology (CST) and initially offered course leading to the award of Ordinary National Diploma (OND) in 1976. It was then upgraded to a single tier Higher National Diploma. In 1980, it became a full fledged Department when courses were modified and developed to meet the reality of society.
The Department of Agricultural Economics/Extension as it was then called, offered programs such as production Economics and farm management, Agric marketing, Agricultural finance. In 1999, Department expanded with additional programmes such as International Economics and finance and Environmental Economics and policy. This expansion calumniated to change the name to – Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics/ Extension to accommodate International Economics and finance as well as environmental Economics and policy, Owing to further expansions, there was need to make the extension unit of the Department to became full fledged Department. Therefore, in 2017 the Department of Agricultural Extension was carved out from the Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics/Extension Today, the Department is now known and addressed as Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics.
