Good day.....pls I'm a little bit confused on the choice of course to study...
I'm an art student

.i wrote GCE in 2014,2015 before I finally passed this year

I wanted to study sociology, but my dad feels that there are no job opportunities for sociologists in nigeria (Note:- he's not forcing me to study another course)

I have little knowledge in graphics design and printing(photoshop, corel draw e.t.c).....


Here is the real problem
My dad/elder sister thinks it's better for me to study something related to graphics design(since i know a bit about it)

(Preferred university is UNILAG)

Which course do you think suits me?


*attached below is my GCE result

Ur family is right oo.....u already hv something to build on.




If u do sociology, u wud only waste ur life.


Im not sure about computer science tho.

Nairalanders, your opinions/advice are still needed

Hmmmmm

You are an art student and you want to study something relating to Graphics design...... I'm sorry but I don't think that is possible dear.

Unilag offers Creative arts as a course tho but it depends on what you really want. For example, you can study business administration and still go for training in your graphics design. Nigeria of today is not about what you studied, but what you can do.

I know of graphic designers who studied courses such as microbiology, political science, music and they are great designers.

My advice is this: Study any course that tickles your fancy(i suggest Bus admin) and still develop yourself in graphics by attending tutorials. In four years from now, you'll become a graduate and also a graphic design expert
