Is Physiotherapy Worth Studying In Nigeria? by Gwebmaster(op): 8:54pm On Jul 04, 2021
Good evening nairalanders,

So, I'm planning to change my course to physiotherapy after seeing my jamb result but I saw a post on Facebook of someone saying "physiotherapy is not worth studying in Nigeria because of no job availability for them in Nigeria unless you travel abroad"

Please is this true?

My jamb score is pretty good to get my desire course (medicine) if I prepare very well in the post utme.

Some people are saying the cut off mark will be reduced because of the massive failure of this year jamb but should in case I didn't get it, I will like to change to physiotherapy, but my question is, is it worth studying?, Speaking of the job availability in Nigeria.

Your advice needed, please answer.

No one will ever tell you a course is bad to be studied in University. It's your responsibility to make good research in order to make an informed decision.

What's your school?

I didn't say you weren't making research....by that, I meant ' other extensive research'.

The job market for physiotherapy in Nigeria can be competitive, and opportunities might be more limited compared to other countries. However, the field is growing, and there are job opportunities in hospitals, clinics, and private practice. It can still be a worthwhile career choice if you're passionate about physiotherapy. If you have the chance, studying abroad could offer better job prospects. For example, if you’re considering opportunities in Canada, you might want to explore options like a physiotherapy clinic toronto. If you don’t get into medicine, physiotherapy is a viable option, but consider your career goals and interests carefully.
