Education / Re: UNN Gave Me Animal Science by Fifthwave(f): 8:44am On Jan 28, 2018 |
Gaddafithe2nd: First you say, "The course is a nice course." Then you said; "I knew someone that was successful in that discipline." then again; "He bagged a Phd in it." With these premises, aren't you practically telling the OP; accept it, you will be successful, you can even bag a PhD. So, was my assumption that you were encouraging him to accept the course from your premises wrong? No. Now you can stop mentioning me. |
Education / Re: 89% of Nigerian Universities Fail to Make Top 5,000 in the World - Webometrics by Fifthwave(f): 8:31am On Jan 28, 2018 |
writerights: 4icu is only based on website popularity. How frequent people visit institutions' website. Times Higher Education is more detailed in ranking, they consider; Teacher - Student ratio, international community, research output amongst others. THE ranking is more holistic in it's ranking and they consider the programmes being offered by the institutions. |

If our universities are to compete globally, here are my suggestions. 1. Privatise all federal and state Universities, then leave only 6 Federal Universities in all geopolitical zones to remain funded. These 6 government funded universities should include: SW: University of Ibadan SE: University of Nigeria, Nsukka SS: University of Porthacourt NE: University of Maiduguri NW: Ahmadu Bello University NC: University of Abuja Entrance into these FG funded universities should be merit based with fees highly subsidised. 2. Open an accessible Student loan under the Ministry of Education to help fund students in the now inflated tuition rates in the newly privatised universities. 3. Primary and secondary schools should receive more funding. Which is where the foundation lies. Technical Education should be set up and funded to reduce the population seeking admission into university education. 4. Universities should focus on problem solving, high-brow R& which would attract funding from industry and alumni. With these, our universities would be highly competitive, with a more stable academic calendar, and would attract an international community which also is an index of ranking by Times Higher Education. This is just a thought, there could be better ways we can handle our falling standard of Education. But believe me, with the current trajectory of Education in Nigeria, it is the Privately owned universities that are competing favourably with universities around the would. It is time we take Education away from the government. 1 Like |

Gaddafithe2nd: Score cheap points? To fetch me money or what? I see you portray all the features of an undergraduate, graduate, and "over graduate" put together. If your advice is that he go do research on the course, doesn't it pass a message that you're ignorant of the prospects of the course? I repeat, why would anyone advise someone whose plan was to study Medicine to accept Animal Science? How are they related? (Do you see who lack comprehension now?) |
Education / Re: UNN Gave Me Animal Science by Fifthwave(f): 1:47am On Jan 28, 2018 |
Gaddafithe2nd: And you think everyone's career path will follow the same trajectory? Especially someone who's original intent was to study Medicine. Please how does Animal Science and Med & Surgery relate? From Medical Sciences to Agriculture. Does this show focus? Some Nairalanders are just wicked in giving advice. |

Josephamstrong1: You just ended up rambling and also displaying your ignorance to the public. How many percent of student who attempt a change of course to Medicine after 100l succeed even with high CGPAs? And how sure are you that the OP will obtain the said high GPA after 100l? |

Legacypower: How many percentage of people who do change of course to a course like medicine, pharmacy, law succeed? You guys should stop deceiving yourselves. Besides, change of course form now cost N50,000. Something which is a game of chance. |

khristal87: Academic adviser. I studied in UNN, Animal Science is a huge trash of a course to undertake in the University. Argue with your touchscreen keyboard display. So you would advise someone whose plan was to study Medicine to take Animal Science. Out of desperation or what? If it were Anatomy or Physiology, that would be fair enough as he could still proceed with his dream of studying Medicine. 58 Likes 7 Shares |

It is sad that in 2018, such courses are still offered in Nigerian Universities. A course like Animal Science have no relevance. This is pure academic hairsplitting. I wonder what Zoology curriculum entails that it can not be merged with the Animal Science curriculum to give practicable relevance. Please, do not accept such a 'curse', prepare for the next Jamb exams. 118 Likes 11 Shares |

Frederick Lugard had the title 'Sir' between 1901 and 1928, this is because he was knighted in 1901. This post is just as ludicrous as Nigeria having a young president in 2019. |
