This research work was pursued to identify the perception of Nigerian students towards OBE enrolled in Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation (BSMT) and Bachelor of Science in Marine Engineering (BSMarE), to determine the level of awareness of Nigerian students towards OBE and to propose action plan that can increase the level of awareness of every Nigerian student. The researchers used descriptive method of research and questionnaire as the primary data gathering tool. The respondents of the study were fifty (50) Nigerian students of Lyceum International Maritime Academy on the basis of random sampling. Results showed that the respondents have clear perception on OBE and aware to the implementation of OBE. The researchers recommended that Nigerian students may be required to take an assessment examination to measure their learning skills and how effective OBE is to them, Maritime schools like Lyceum International Maritime Academy may provide an OBE program for all their students so as to enhance their skills in studying their courses, Nigerian students who are unaware of the implementation of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) program may be provided seminar about OBE to increase their knowledge and skills in coping up with their courses, the university administrator may conduct trainings and orientations with the professors and students to increase the level of awareness regarding OBE, and faculty members may study more about the courses they are teaching so as to be more professional on their respective fields of studies as new methods of teachings are being applied.
