Its not shocking. The trend has been on since God knows when. Our education system needs serious improvement. In other places it takes a max of 8months to obtain an Msc degree while here, 18months is a feat

bushdoc9919:
Because .....no MONEY.

Most of the top universities in the world have lots of money.Money is the root of all evil. It is also what buys you top class facilties, funds research, funds nice libraries,funds nice student digs, funds all those top class sports facilities (the other day, an American college spent 77million dollars on sports facilities.)....and gets you good lecturers.(Lots of the staff at Harvard are Nobel Laureates. Think they came cheap?).

And all those top universities don't come cheap. You pay high fees....up to thousands of dollars every year...to access that top class education (If you are poor need based aid comes in,but that's another tale).

In Nigeria, most universities are lucky to see $10million every year (UCLA sees $250million, Norway' s second largest sees $800million). And government runs most of these universities on limited funding. And fees are kept low.

This leaves many universities looking like malnourished kwashiorkor victims (OK...hyperbole). And we cannot find extra cash for them because your govt has run out of money thanks to our oil dependent economy. And corruption messes things up too....but even if that went, we would still have just a little extra. And we do not have enough lecturers.

So...no money...means no facilities, no books...nothing.

If you want to be in the top 100, even 1000...

1.Privatise the universities. We have no choice.

2.Increase fees.(and taxes) Again no choice.

3.Need based grants for poor students,payable over decades.

4.If 1-3 are not palatable....pray that Buhari finds N10trillion in the next five years just for universities (This years budget for Nigeria was N4 trillion). Or pray we get a diversified economy so that we have the cash

5.If 1-3 are palatable...then redirect funding to the primary, secondary and technical education. We need more technicians really.And it is not a shameful job as some Nigerians think it is.

Sorry Nigerians....but while we need to beat corruption....we also have to make the hard choices.We do not have the money. It costs N150000 yearly to train a undergraduate. Do you have the money?
Everything you wrote is excellent, thank you. I especially appreciate your point number 5, we as a people must realise that practical skills is paramount for survival in a budding economy as ours not university degrees where the places of employment just don't exist yet, we need people to create jobs for now.

Again, thank you.

Most times over there, masters takes a year or less. And may depend on the course, your research and all. If you brush up ur research in a shorter time, then you would conclude your program quicker. But on the average it takes a year or less.
