All courses in Nigeria except (Music and Entertainment Technology). Can't you see the way Government bodies, Private Organizations (Etisalat, Glo, Mtn), Private Individuals are pumping money into Entertainment Industry.

Acting

Cooking/catering

ItsModella:
I'm kidding, I don't know what they study.

They study journalistic ethos, laws and ethics

I tell you. The entertainment industry in Nigeria is huge! Nollywood has to be amongst the highest employers of labour in Naija.

Actually there isn't such a thing as a useless course of study, provided you know it is your passion and you can tailor it for success.

A more unrealistic type of course to pursue may be that which is overcrowded and saturated with students.

More students=more competition=less potential for career advancement.

Depends of where you live or are going to live.

the dude that mentioned English language in this thread urgently needs medical attention

no, I'm not, are u?

This kind of thread exposes our backwardness as a nation/people. All courses are important, as they all target different aspects of our existence. It is unfortunate that Science (and engineering) is almost dead in Nigeria. I see no reason why a graduate of Yoruba language should work in a bank. Yoruba, for example, is a markettable language. There are over a billion journals in science, none yet translated to Yoruba.
The only problem is the way our educational system has remained stagnant. If we were a dynamic people, we will have many diverse specialised areas of study which will be absolutely important to our existence.

Exoticstan: Am a Medicine aspirant. Uniben is in question. Could you please help me with useful hints?

Useful hints!

- Except your father is wealthy, don't do medicine.
- Except you are willing to spend 6-7 years + a further 2 or 3 years due to strike, don't do medicine
- Except you are willing to work for a private hospital that would pay you peanuts, don't do medicine
- Except you are going to leave Nigeria to some other countries when you graduate, don't do medicine.

But if you insist, then the simple thing is STUDY HARD.

theology or sexology is the best course in Nigeria now

No course is useless, you have to know how to make it work for you.

What an uninformed statement to make about Computer Science. Do you think a few weeks in a 'computer school' can substitute for 4 years of directed study in the most vibrant field today? The people who work in companies doing real computing, what should they have studied? Do you think its because they went to aptech for 1 month that they got thier jobs?Think before you talk.

It seems you did not do very well while you were a student there or someone close to you couldn't cope.Anyone adhering to the above advice is just being naive.
The fact that you/friend/acquaintance/family member found it difficult to cope does not mean others would.
When I first applied to study Applied Physics at UNILAG,people told me that it was hell in that department and that they were all sadists.I told myself if others failed,that is not my problem.I WANT TO STUDY PHYSICS.I applied,got the admission and graduated in due course with good grades.

peleson: Don't study elect elect in unilag, mowete , mohammed n Co will make u hate u were very smart and brilliant

Nairalandi: I won't allow any Nairalander to study Mati Matis...lol.pls don't raf at my engrissh oooh
