Idrismusty97: Quantity surveying is a great course. They are the accountants in the science field. In fact i will advice any science students that also have passion for economics should go for Quantity surveying. They can partake in virtually all manner of construction projects, Estimating costs and visiting constrution sites. Unlike Accountants they have technical knowledge and that only would give them an edge over others. Just like architecture it is turning into a hot cake(At least in Africa). Yh it is a great course but there is a lil problem, the engineers can do their job. Inshort there r some engr jobs that only an engr can quantify. Then the other issue is a whole firm may need just 1 quantity surveyor. I think what we need is a bigger and more robust economy that can accomodate everyone. Because if everyone decides to study the choice courses u would find that u will need a first class to even apply for a job. However it is necessary to know the prospects of a course before u decide to study it. Also those saying they kno someone with english, agric e.t.c working in a bank, therefore using that point as a basis for saying those degrees shouldnt be on d unemployment list.. There is no degree that cant get a job in a bank! But that doesnt mean all degrees have good prospects. If there were jobs in d first place, what would a agric grad be doing in a bank? A doctor would never seek a job in a bank because medicine has d lowest unemployment rate in Nigeria. As a matter of fact the prospects of a degree depends largely on the location. E.g in india, a doctor most likely would need to leave d country to get a job cos india has more doctors than it needs. In naija there r a lot of degrees that r synonymous wit unemployment and mind u 10% unemployment rate is heaven compared to naija. There r courses with 90% unemployment rate in naija. 1 Like |

[quote author=jdilight] Where would an economics graduate work if jobs were to be given based on certificate we have?[/quote Everywhere. The sky is your limit, according to Keynes, its an apparatus of the mind and a technique of thinking. If you decide to be a doctor, you will be the best. A politician, the best, an accountant, the best. |

There are a number of investments that i personally thinks can never fails, those are the thing we will be discussion here today,but the problem of today's youth is impatience as they are always searching for already made jobs which can not be readily available for all of us, it is only a few that will be able to get that kind of job. haven't said that, it is high time as young Nigerians that we should develops investment mentality in a viable business and stop looking for that already made job. Like I said above, there are a number of investment that you can do that will yield returns within three months. are you following? the number one on the list is Online business. there are many online business out there and also there are many screamers too you must be very careful while making your choice, but i will gives you a little from that list that are very reliable Bulksms business will never fail if you can do proper marketing of your site. information marketing also can never fails as well. websites design is also a viable business, and many more find out yourself. Aside from that offline business that can not fails are, Water business started like play some years ago till now people are still asking for more. live stock rearing is the most viable one i like so much poultry, piggery, fishery and many more that you can add to that list. You can sees now that in Nigeria today we can still have some investment that can fetch you good money without recording any form of failure. Thanks for your time in Reading this report.
