Initially I wanted to focus on the medical aspect of MCB but in recent years Medical Lab. Scientists seem to be preferred in that field.
So I'm considering the Industrial aspect for now before I can further my studies.

the issue with MLSCN is being handled with kids gloves, those guys know they can take microbiologists for a ride and block us from being involved with the healthcare system, angry

afterall the law that brought them into existence enables them to do so.

as for industrial, its good, it is usually offered as food/industrial or industrial/environmental, at the Msc level, depending on the taste of the student offering it. Anyway, i suggest you set yourself up with something rather than slave away for some company for peanuts. if you can source for funds, i suggest you go into production of yeast, starter culture for yogurt or mushroom farming/mushroom spawn production. we need out of the box thinking to survive in this sh.i.t hole called nigeria.

by the way, are you interested in having a career as a research scientist?

nice post.
The issue with MSLCN was a big one when i wanted to do my IT then in one FMC,they wanted to screen us MCBites out if not for the intervention of the Director then. As a matter of fact an MCB holde isn't allowed to establish a Laboratory. And its something i intend having some day!

you are one of the few MCbites I've met that don't mind doing research professionally. Fortunately there are quite a number of research institutes in Nigeria (government owned) that enlist the services of microbiologists. You could be on the look out for employment opportunities when available in these institutes. Only NIMR, NIOMR & FIIRO are located in lagos. The rest are scattered round the country.

ok, NIMR is the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research, which is located at yaba
NIOMR is the Nigerian Institute of Oceanography & Marine Research, which is located on victoria island
FIIRO is the Federal Institute of Industrial Research, which located at Oshodi

you can google them to find out their websites and exact address. each of these institutes regularly organise training workshops and programmes for individuals and they also recruit every 3-4 years, so be on the look out. you can get more info by visiting their sites

yeah i remember you, what happened to your other handle?
your idea is very good, infact i encourage you not to relent. most food/beverage/pharmaceutical companies that employ microbiologists as quality control officers are located in lagos. unless you see a place in the east, lagos-ogun state axis will be a good place to start
