Top 10 Lucrative Courses In Nigeria by holuwajobar(m): 8:32am On Sep 07, 2017
Here in Nigeria, there are some courses that you will
need to study to make it real big in term of financial life.
These courses has a way of transforming ones financial
life. Take note that being lucrative does not mean that it
is easy to get employed. Being lucrative implies that it
fetches a lot of money to your bank account.

Below are the courses that are lucrative in Nigeria;

1. PHARMACY

Let us to be sincere, people who study this course has
the advantage of making it big here in Nigeria. Pharmacy
is all about the study of drugs and how it works in the
body. It is either you work as a community pharmacist
(these are the pharmacist you see in your community and
also take not that chemist and pharmacist are not the
same) or you can work as an hospital pharmacist (these
are pharmacist you see in the hospital) or you can work
as an industrial pharmacist (these are the pharmacist that
produce the drug we use). If you want to make it real big
in the line of pharmacy, i will advise you to go for
industrial or community pharmacy because they have
more advantage of making more money than the hospital
pharmacy.

2. MEDICINE & SURGERY

Even though the doctors are not paid as high as they
want, they have more advantage of making more money
in Nigeria. They can also decide to work overseas or they
can decide to specialize in a particular field, thereby
increasing their pay/salary. Some might even decide to
become a lecturer. People who study these courses has
a lot of chances of making it big financially as they don't
bother to seek for employment, most of them are
employed immediately after school.

3. DENTISTRY & DENTAL SURGERY

Dentistry and dental surgery is all about the study of the
oral cavity. I know some people might disagree that
dentistry does not worth being third on the list but the
truth is that both doctors and dentists are paid on same
salary scale (CONHESS). They also have the opportunity
to specialise like the counterpart (doctors) in a particular
field. They also have the opportunity to work in the
oversea after they sit for licensing exam. In USA, dentists
are the highest paid profession, they are more paid than
doctors but here in Nigeria, they are paid same salary.

4. BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

As the word implies, it is all about business and we all
know that business is running the world. The richest black
man in the world, Aliko Dangote is a businessman.
People who study this course have the opportunity to
stand alone (become an entrepreneur) and run their
business venture. Most times, they tend to be successful
in the business because they know more about business
and how it works.

5. ENGINEERING

All forms of engineering is lucrative if they have the
opportunity to work in a big engineering firm. All forms of
engineering like petrochemical, mechanical, civil,
electrical and so on. People who study these courses
really make it big financially most especially those who
study petrochemical engineering. These people are paid
well in Nigeria. The disadvantage they have is that they
can hardly stand alone at the early stage of their career.

6. ECONOMICS

One thing i like this course is that people who study it can
work almost everywhere, i mean that you can find them in
almost all sectors like the educational sector, business
sector, banking sector and so on. Also they are paid well
and they also have the opportunity to stand alone as an
entrepreneur.

7. LAW

Though there are argument that law is no longer lucrative
but it remain number 7 on the list. People who study law
to become lawyer know how they make their money
because they look comfortable. They also further to
become barristers, SAN (Senior Advocate of Nigeria) and
so on.

8. ICT

For those who don't know the full meaning of ICT, it
means Information and Communication Technology and
when i say ICT, i mean people who study any course
related to computer, website designing etc. I refer them
to as computer gurus or tech gurus. We all know that it is
technology making things happen in this world. These
guys are really paid well and they can become a boss of
their own (an entrepreneur).

9. NURSING

I have reasons why nursing is the number 9 on my list.
The reason is that they easily get job in the hospital due
to the high need of nurses in the hospital. Also they can
proceed to become "matron". In a nut shell, they are well
paid and they easily get job compared to other health
related courses.

10. MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE

Nowadays, hospitals prefer to employ med lab scientists
to biochemist or microbiologist, the reason is that med
lab science has covered both microbiology and
biochemistry. Therefore, they easily get employed and
they are paid well.


Take note that this list is not official, everything up there
is based on my opinion but if you feel the list is
incomplete or wrong, you can let us know your opinion.
