Hi guys.
I graduated and finished service about a year ago. Been looking for job, but it's been a very difficult journey. I graduated with a lower, so the opportunity has not been much for me.
So, I decided to apply for masters. With God's favour, I got admission into the programme.
Now, here is my dilemma. The course I got admission for is medical systems engineering. I did a bit of search and noticed biomedical engineering is not so popular and common in the nigerian scene. At first this was the reason I chose the course, I wanted to go for somthing unique and try to build in that field, something untapped.

My dear nairalanders, would you suggest I take this course? I am a bit sceptical, as I have not heard or meet any biomedical engineer. I don't want to go do the masters and comeback and be more useless that when I left in the first place.
Please my brothers and sisters, if you have any info please contribute and advice me on this my issue.
I studied engineering, mechanical. Thanks

It is indid unique but are u really prepared tp face the challenges of the new area cos our older folks finds change a bit challenging, so if u can then the sky wl b ur starting point

I wanted to take a similar path after mbbs. I did my research and realised it ain't worth it.

don't try it...especially if you're considering Nigeria. Even outside the country, the future is bleak for BM engineers.

I'm just being realistic. It could be different for you.
