What of surveying and geo-informatics

It shouldn't make that list!

juicy1010:
@op, what of physiotherapy. Physiotherapy is a very lucrative course down here in Nigeria. I haven't seen a physiotherapists without a job.

God bless you....... You make my day, i rep physio

mencade5:
ok....but wat is d difference?

Physics (Edu),is an Education course, which means you will be taught how teach basic Physics.. Physics(Bsc) on the other hand,is virtually the hardest course to study anywhere in the world,and is the most respected in developed countries (USA,UK,Russia etc),this is the course that breed geniuses,like Newton,Tesla,Einstein just to name a few. This is also the course engineering came from..do your research bro.

Op, why is civil engineering not on that your list despite numerous construction going on across the length and breadth of the nation.
What are ur criteria for the above list.

Op.... google mechatronics engineering nd ur view will totally change

International Relations especially in OAU

My sister is stuck btwn
NURSING
BANKING AND FINANCE.
she's confused on wat to choose.
She has complete papers on banking nd finance but for d nursing she has to rewrite to get biology nd physics.she sees it as a waste of time.i dont even knw wat to advise her.

please tell us these are the courses you know!

I have always seen thread similar to this and I discovered that Polymer Engineering and Polymer Technology is not always on the list.
Why do u guys always underrate this course? If u do ur research u will discover that polymer is improving and its a course worth studying.

Bro I did...
You are setting a sail for jambites or potential jambites to try grab one of this courses...
Why not rather encourage them to go for their passion even if its horticulture or any so called down graded courses.
Information is power sir.
I meant no disrespect.
Thanks.

I agree with u... Nigerian students r d cause of unemployment.. they go for d popular courses... dey don't go for courses they love... I love mathematics so well.. Nd dats exactly wat m studying..

Civil engineering should be in no.1 or 2. Op even chose architecture ahead of civil. Laughing in Swahili. When it comes to job/work opportunities, civil is even better or on par with agriculture especially in developing countries like ours.



CIVIL..... Transforms dreams into Reality.

Give it to geologist!

johncreek:
I will have to disagree with you on this OP..
Every course is a top course and every course is a pre-requisite to human life in every endeavour, so stop putting some young fellows on a red tap wire....
Go for what makes you happy not what fetches you money... You will get tired soon

Seconded...

Actually it's "knowledge is power". Knowledge and information are not the same

How about top ten vocational skills to acquire.....guess that's what can guarantee jobs quicker and develop the nation

jeshi:
It shouldn't make that list!

why do u say so

Mrokaykay:
That's d dope of all

and how do you mean

Realrex:
i think his thesis is base on influence of the courses otherwise Accounting shouldn't be there. Ok wot about geology or even geophysics? Cos we largely depend on oil in Nigeria so most of this courses are hidden but very lucrative. Proudly surveying student...

i sight u brother

Yungwizzzy:

That could fall under archi

how do you mean

Islamics Studies

Yea, that's what I studied too, actually, industrial mathematics. It was what I loved, and I went for it

CONTACT Me On CAREER ADVICE ON 08133323633 . AM A DENTAL STUDENT

I will choose Civil or Electrical and Electronics Engineering over Petroleum or Gas Engineering.Gone are those days when Petroleum Engineering was the dream of almost all the would be Engineering students.

What about SOCIAL and VERBAL ENGINEERING..?

What about TRADITIONAL MEDICINE...?

Naijakick:

If you wanted to be really honest with yourself, you'll accept that a particular set of courses in Nigeria are actually regarded at the best of all courses. You can't really blame them though, with the rate of unemployment in Nigeria these courses are the only professions that can lead to a student having a really good Job. Having this in mind you can see the Top 10 Courses To Study In Nigeria and give your comments below if you feel otherwise.



#1

Medicine

You're in the science stream and you reveal your choice of institution to your parents, we both know the course they'l advice you to go for MEDICINE. Advice of course for parents that listen and are understanding for other parents, they'll most likely force you till JAMB shows them you don't really like the profession. This reminds me of my highschool days , 70% of the class filled Medicine as their course of study. Chose!!!! Now most of them if not all are studying biochemistry or something related.

#2

Pharmacy

The next on the Top 10 Courses To Study In Nigeria is pharmacy . You couldn't make medicine right, go for the next thing to it "Pharmacy". The prestigious faculty of pharmacy, even more prestigious if you're a pharmacy student in OAU. In case you didn't know, OAU is actually the first university in Nigeria to have pharmacy as a faculty of it's own. So Pharmacy!! as NO 2

#3

Law

Yes! The prestigious and proud law students of Nigeria. This doesn't even require your parents, Once you're in the art class the first thing you fill in as your desired course of study is Law!!!.. I don't really blame they have the most beautiful girls. I don't know about your school but in OAU here? believe me i once went for a class very early so i could see Law chicks troop out in their black and white and their short skirts.. (Hope my mum isn't reading this lol.. mum am facing my Education ooh !!) So Law as NO 3.

#4

Electrical Electronics

Meet the king of the technology faculty, Elect Elect is actually a very cool course to study and they have the most intellectual students. I respect the students of the department but hey don't get me wrong, I'm a computer with Economics Student. Yeah that's right, I'm a double honour student, i have every reason to be proud *lol* . I just like elect cause you can really diversify. In elect i've met bad ass programmers, even more bad ass than programmers in my department. No 4 goes to Elect then

#5

Architecture

I for one am a great fan of this course. For now lets pretend the course isn't one of the most stressful courses you can ever choose to study, department is DOPE. Once you're good you're GOOD! and they're probably the students with one of the highest chances of getting a job in this country with an outrageous number of unemployed. They are still the fewest, that's why i don't still understand how they throw the best parties in OAU. NO 5 goes to archi.

#6

Computer Science & Engineering

Ok so you might feel i'm biased about putting computer here just because am a student of the AMAZING department but NO. Computer Science & Engineering is actually one of the best courses a tech student could choose to study. Let's face it, the world becoming more and more digital everyday. Gone are the days i have to use cash to buy food. Now with just a Sanwo card in ife here i can buy a lovely meal, now who do you think controls the future. so number 6 goes to the Computer students

#7

Nursing

Nursing definitely has to be on the list, without the help of the nurses where would the doctors before. If you argue otherwise, you definitely haven't experienced what happens to patients when the nurses in a hospital embark on a strike. Well i know what happens and the doctors would tell you they can't do it alone. So Nursing NO 7

#8

Mechanical Engineering

Some people would disagree on the ranking of Mech Engin on this list because Mechanical Engineering isn't just hard to get when trying to get into an institution but it is also very hard to study but the reason i kept it on NO 10 is because it isn't an independent course. How many Mechanical Engineering students have you met that finished school and they decide to Work on their own? Most if not all of them begin searching for Jobs and lets be sincere it's not easy to come across job opportunities these days. So Mechanical Engineering Wins slot NO 8

#9

Accounting

So this is like the first commercial course to make the list and No am not being Biased, in fact i felt very reluctant to add it to the list. The reason i added it is because that's the first course that comes to commercial students minds when it's time to pack their things to the Higher Institution. Before accounting students stone me to death, ask yourselves this question how many of you can be self established successfully without a great amount Capital.

#10

Agriculture

The last on the list is the whole faculty of agric. The reason agric is on No 10 is because of the ease with which students can get into the faculty. Soil Science, Animal Science, Agric Econs but when you look at it from the productive aspect of it and the self Establishment capabilities, agric is really an amazing course to study. There you have it, Nigeria's top 10 courses. If you feel otherwise about the other of the ranking , You can drop your thought in the comment section.

Accounting no be beans

My sister is stuck btwn
NURSING
BANKING AND FINANCE.
she's confused on wat to choose.
She has complete papers on banking nd finance but for d nursing she has to rewrite to get biology nd physics.she sees it as a waste of time.i dont even knw wat to advise her.

If it is her wish/passion to study nursing let her go for it. Nurses are never out of job. The only time I am jobless is the two days it takes me to resign and resume at another place.

Passion is the key, if she is not passionate about nursing she will be pissed of easily. Nigerian hospital is a war zone might even be synonymous with sambisa.

No Economics,your list is incomplete.
