How Long Does It Take To Run A Masters And Doctorate In Nigeria? by Kiinetic(op): 3:16pm On Nov 11, 2014
Some minutes ago, I overheard two guys arguing about how long it takes to run a masters program in Nigerian Universities. One said it takes more than 2 years, while the other said it is usually done in a year.

I'll like to really know. Please how long does it really take to run a masters degree program in Nigeria, and I'll also like to know about that of the doctorate too.

Thank you.

I don't think so, the least I've seen is 18 months. It may depend on the course or university.
