NaWeDeyHere: U Wan spoil market o. But you have stated the facts. Even among the popular STEM courses there are still unpopular specialities. That's where the real money is. Loads of people today are diving in to IT and specifically programming. Or should you I say Web development. You see everyone shouting "fullstack", "Frontend", "backend" developers. They mention all the fancy languages. Overflood that area whereas language like C++ is heavily overlooked. To the advantage of many 2 Likes 1 Share |

airsaylongcome: You are right. The market of popular careers gets more and more saturated daily while the demand grows in the unpopular ones. The pay and availability of jobs shrinks in the popular fields while the pay and number of jobs skyrockets in the unpopular. Again, The Law of Supply and Demand |

Sleekfingers: IF you plan to stay in Nigeria, yes. But outside your country, a degree in music can lead to a career in audio/sound engineering. Every popular musician depends on sound engineers. Someone running the board in a studio can easily make $50- 75USD per hour. |

CrystalSpark:The rich kids go for their passion while poor man pikin go to escape poverty. I can read countlessly here on nairaland where people ask if they should go for a particular course coz it pays more. That's why our society Is filled with mediocre graduates from all zones. 3 Likes |

It is because they follow their passion and not the money that their family already has. The ordinary Nigerian is a worshipper of money and will do any and everything to get money including selecting courses they feel it's gonna be a high end return one. At the end no one is actually following their passion but the money. |

CrystalSpark: Because they are pampered and their parents would foot their bills from corrupt proceedings anyway. Unlike the rich from western countries, their children study Engineering, Medicine etc. Social sciences except Law are usually taken by people from poorer backgrounds. |

CrystalSpark: 1. Too stupid to qualify for real courses. 2. Think the money the parents have today will feed them forever. 3. Life goal was to be a house wife so just going to school sef was because it was by force. |

BECAUSE THEY UNDERSTAND EDUCATION IS NOT A LEGACY!!! . WAKE UP BRO. NOTHING IN ALL THESE THEORY FILLED INSTITUTIONS. JUST GET ANY GRADE AND DON'T SPEND A FORTUNE OBTAINING IT! NO ACADEMICIAN HAS EVER BECOME A BILLIONAIRE! OUR ELECTIONS HAVE BEEN HANDLED BY THE PROFESSORS, WHAT HAVE WE GAINED AS A NATION FROM IT. WE HAVE MILLIONS OF PROFESSORS IN THIS COUNTRY AND YET THE SO CALLED ILLITERATES AND DROP OUTS ARE THE ONE CONTROLLING AND IMPACTING THE ECONOMY. IMAGINE A UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY COULD NOT NOT PRODUCE COMMON ITEMS LIKE POWERBANK, EARPHONE, CHARGERS! LOL |

I think for the fact they are wealthy ,they have the liberty to follow their passion, they just want to study what makes them happy , unlike individuals from an average or poor background whom have the mentality that their child needs to study a mainstream course in order to be successful in life without considering if he or she has passion for that course. |

I don't know the rich people you are talking about. But most of the rich people always ensure their children go for courses under law, engineering, medicine and accountancy. They normally send their children abroad and they find those courses very easy. The poor people may struggle to be fitted into any of the courses under the above mentioned faculties. It takes the grace of God for them to be fitted into any of it and to also make it from it after scaling through the profession. Those that may be exceptional are those that are not very brilliant among the children of the rich people. |

It's all about the Connection. They study very unpopular courses because gaining employment will NOT be a problem for them. They do not have to perturb with sleepless nights because they have connections in higher places. Buhari's daughter is studying Photography but do not be surprised to find her employed as the Minister of Petroleum tomorrow. |
