of recent...about a couple of days ago..I basically made a write up of the best top 10 courses and hot cake in nigeria as at today..

but I have finally,come up with another write up of the top 10 worst degrees with lowest potential for employment in nigeria as at today

certainly,there is no degree that guarantees one job in & by itself however given the current economic situation and the fast pace of economic and technological shift in the continent and nigeria in particular there are degrees you would be better off not investing your time and resources to acquire as opportunities affected in those areas are increasingly getting eroded...if however you have a degree in any of them and finding it tough to make career headway it's time to put on your thinking cap
1 General Arts;
this cover anything from art history to painting/sculpture in the western world and developed countries having a degree in the arts could fetch one decent job opportunities several years ago..after the depression however with many european economic still sttuggling to recover it's becoming increasingly tough to find opportunities for majors in such areas like archeology,painting/fine art,history et cetera.

the opportunities for these sort of degrees are shrinking and people with the academic credentials thinking to get themselves a job in related field would have to do a cot of innovative and pro active thinking.
career counsellors advise those who want to study such things as art,dance,and music to have a specific strategy...sometimes a way out could be getting a higher degree(such as masters).

2 Humanities and liberal Arts;
if you love sitting and thinking about the intricacies of life and expounding on theories of existence or analysing political theories and events there may not be enough opportunities to do that in real life with your philosophy or political science degree to earn good money..
Humanities and liberal Art degree courses like Anthropology,political science,philosophy and many more do not give the graduates who passes them specific in road into the employement market..unlike professional courses like engineering,and the business field having a degree in any of the humanities may not really point one to a specific career direction.

3 Education;
unless you are willing to take higher degrees and pursue teaching opportunities at higher levels of the education ladder having an education degree is hardly going to get you the best jobs.
the only ways a graduate degree holder in education will do better is either to go for higher qualification and try to break into higher level teaching or do a career switch entirely and go for higher qualification in a different field that has more career prospects.

4 Religious studies;
Given the way churches and self styled pastors are springing up in every nook and cranny it should appear that splurging money on a religious studies degree will present the holder with bright prospects...however nothing can be further from the truth..except you are willing to plunge in and open your own church down the street,becoming a quran clutching preacher et cetera...there are hardly any existing opportunities for you to explore if you have a religiouss studies degree and wish to exploit opportunities there in.

5 Mass communication;
In considering mass communication we had a struggle with choosing a few other courses ahead of mass communication but at the end the argument was too much against mass communication degree.
the increasing introduction of media technology is eating away at the former strongholds of mass communication graduates..reporters and journalist find the rug being gradually pulled of their feet as bloggers and writers who hitherto knew nothing about mass communication.

take over the business of news discovering and sharing newspaper and television are no longer holding the baton in exclusive control of the media business...for mass comm.majors who wish to find and pursue the right career day need to understand the change in mass media and communication tools and acquire the right skills.
other worst course are;
6 botany
7 social studies
8 english literature
9 zoology
10 forest and wildlife management(wonderwhat you wana do with these,mayb you will use the certificate for cutting of woods in the forest)

Cutehector4u:
Nonsense....my president studied zoology...

Sarhamsyn:
if u study zoology one day u'll become 9ja President jus lyk GEJ.

Akposy:
Stop all dis rubbish post
Am a proud Botany student and i can proudly tell u dat without plant dere is no life!
We plant scientist improve lives by making research on various plants for medicinal and forensic usage.
All flesh is grass

Rapsodee:
Which school are you pls?

Akposy:

Delta state uni (delsu)

Its a shame that somebody will waste valuable time listing hot and cold courses in our institutions, of what value is it to those who studied the aformentioned courses? Should they denounce their degrees and take a course in medicine? Is that what ur point is? Its people like u that think education is all about getting employment, education is suppose to build an individual into creating something new, creating jobs, bringing innovations and improving the society.

You that composed those unprofitable list above what did u study in school? What are u doing for a living? Are both answers related? If yes then you are lucky, if no u better start telling ursef the truth.

In ur low thinking mentality of unemployability based on discipline, has the word ''enterprenurship'' simply dissapeared? I believe u are educated that's why u can post stuffs about education, but by posting above, u have not helped anyone out there.

What we should be talking about now is not about getting a job, its about creating one, the government are trying to disemphacise employments for the youths, they have started insinuating that youths should be instrument of job creation, instead of people like the OP that I assume is a youth to encourage job creation, he is preaching the old age sermon of ''go to school and graduate to get a job'', our society is indeed moving faster than u can imagin, people have started discovering alternatives to writing great CVs, they have started accepting CVs!

OP u need to wake up, wake up from the myopic view of the ''job hunt'' strategy to innovation and creation of jobs. That job u maybe doing now was created by someone, and u are satisfied been a subordinate for life, that's modern day slavery, simply because u red medicine does not mean u have to remain an employee of an hospital, a medical doctor can digress and do research in order to creat solutions for the so many uncurable diseases flying around.

So fellow nairalanders don't be discouraged by what OP said if ur discipline is listed above, u can challenge ur gots and creat something, so that people like the OP can beg u 4 a slot in ur business, and because dats his desire in life, he will be ur servant and u will pay him peanuts.

Last bullet: it is not about what u read in school that matters, its about ur personal talents that u developed over the years, most graduates did not study their dream courses, therefore we cannot base our personality and career based on the fact that we read one course or the other. I wish all of us a prosperous 2015!

Rapsodee:
Oohk...thanks.
rep OAU....same course!

Aitee1:
Op it pays to be verse in all areas...if you don't have an idea of how useful forestry and wildlife is to our environment don't make a mockery of it...tree conservation has a greater part to play in everyday life. Just do some research. Those in the north can even testify to that fact first.

You are here making jest of those that read such course is it not Nigerian govt that careless about environment? Go to the western world and see how the white treasure their environs!

Akposy:


Great! Wich level

Rapsodee:
Just entered...
2nd semester!
you?

Akposy:

200lvl first semester...did u fill botany or jamb gave u?

happykidArotiba:
av u graduated?

kristein:

that's an encouraging fit..i am really impressed with your able fit not being a deterrent to my fellow nairaland..

according to me,i never said anything about difficulty in abundant earning in my write up in the aforemention(try to improve yourself in quality interpretation and not jump into conclusion in a haste)..

what i said was that"any affected individual that eventually find herself in the aforemention should prolly strategize a good and impressive innovation"...because unlike other profession who hardly hunt for job many years..and dont pretend you know nothing about what's going on in labour market this 21st century..

your encouragement is quite welcoming and of ease but try to be realistic sometimes!

and by the way am still an undergraduate(studyin accounting in one of prestigious versity) ..but i am more experience and enlightened about this whole write up of mine

Rapsodee:
was given!
