Nuc and the ministry of education should look into this issue, allowing a fresh bsc graduate to do his/her postgraduate programme(pgd,msc) without necessarily going for the mandatory 1 year Nysc,then after the postgraduate programme the person will then go for Nysc the reason is because so many fresh graduates have interest in going further but once they go for Nysc the interest in advanced studies starts to decline they now prefer to go straight into the labour market secondly so many parents and sponsors have the mentality that once there child goes for Nysc that they are true with sponsoring him/her and therefore the person will fend for him/herself but when you allow the student to stay back or go to any other school to spend an extra 18months in school for advance studies before going for Nysc it will encourage professionalism, specialization and it will increase the number of experts in the various fields in the country,the government inturn should also provide study grants for such students...the top countries in the world today are those that encourages further studies,you will really want to know the reason behind the high number of phd holders in america,a young lad that have an msc will love to get a phd pretty soon...when a young person goes to Nysc with bsc and msc i think there will be alot of improvement in the system and it will also increase the number of experts in science and basic medical science who operates below 50% without an msc, only architecture adopted such a system making it a 6 years programme. But the one am talking about here should not be a compulsory one it should be meant for students who are interested in it. And it will increase the number of phd holders in nigeria then the government can be proud to make a phd the minimum requirement for lecturing in nigeria. What do you think about this idea?
