Thank you for this question, OP.

I am also waiting to hear about a course that guarantees employment in Telecoms. I have friends who will find this information extremely beneficial.

Guaranteed employment, sounds appealingly great indeed.

Well, I work in telecom.
First question would be, where are you planning to work, after the Msc? If it's in Nigeria, Number 2 is adequate. 1 is neither here nor there, and 3 is definitely out of it, unless you're chasing up a complex and demanding career designing, testing, and commissioning chipsets for Intel, Qualcomm, or AMD. That definitely is not relevant in Nigeria.

Oh, lest I forget. There is no such thing as an Msc that guarantees employment in today's world.

^^ Where to work is of course Nigeria.Thank you so much;my mind was tilting towards number 2 as well. Yes, i know there is no Msc that guarantees employment in today's world but I'm asking the question base on where there is shortage of skill set which would boast one's employ-ability in the sector after graduation.More views please...!

Thank you for this question, OP.

Hi Ajanlekoko, thank you once again for your response, it was very helpful. Could you list or highlight the skill set you would look out for a potential employee ,who has undertaken this course(Msc Radio & Mobile Communication Systems Engineering) to demonstrate or possess to make him or her your number one choice(employer's choice)to employ in this sector.Thank you in anticipation.

Well, the thing about telecom is, we are not investment bankers . Rather than 'skill set', we are more interested in your experience with the subject matter.
Wireless communications is now about 90% of world telecom in terms of footprint and subscribers, so the program I suggested is more relevant, I think. At least in name.

The key to getting a good telecom job is, unfortunately, relevant experience. I hope your program has good connections to major service providers, and has embedded internships with the likes of Siemens, Ericsson, Alcatel-Lucent, Nokia, etc. Those are the blue-chips in telecom. Experience interning with them will look good on your cv, and hopefully stand you in good stead for a job with them, or similar companies, after graduation.

Thank you very much. You too much. Have a nice day!
