I disagree with u poster on number 5, my brother is an architect and so I know how had it is for them and don't say maybe he is not good at it cos he is actually very good.

are u sure you understand english? because in the post i said actually made the fact that they work a lot known.. i said "let's pretend"

Acquire rational thought, think at the margin, then INCLUDE ECONOMICS!!! Ceteres paribus!

and when you're done studying economics .. won't you still beg to get employed? those courses on the list can help u get self established

Architecture is not for unserious students. In the department of Architcture you must come to lectures and defend your assignments, if not you must fail. Very very stressfullllll

LadyFiona:
If it is her wish/passion to study nursing let her go for it. Nurses are never out of job. The only time I am jobless is the two days it takes me to resign and resume at another place.

Passion is the key, if she is not passionate about nursing she will be pissed of easily. Nigerian hospital is a war zone might even be synonymous with sambisa.

war? Btwn doc nd nurses or amng urselvs

Nay. Among the various personnel employed in the hospital. There is this unspoken enemity , unprofessional hatred/rivalry and lack of understanding of what team work means in our hospitals. In the US, patients are suing their healthcare providers but in Nigeria, someone sometimes a fellow coworker somewhere is waiting for you to mess up so that they can help the victim and often their co-perpetrators to tarnish your image and revoke your license. It exist everywhere around the globe but Nigeria is a case on its own.

Anoda very impotant medical course making it,is medical laboratory science. Dats d bedrock upon which medicine and surgery stand. Check it out with unilag and lautech in d west and oda regions.

I now get u. Thanks.

starlingbawa:
Not necessarily the case.

I ve got a Degree and MSc in 'Mass Communication' and I do a job as a 'Social Performance Advisor' for Oil Giants SHELL.

Trust me when I say the pay day ranks amongst the most competitive anywhere in Nigeria.

It doesn't always have to be any of the 10 professions as highlighted by the OP...

I like ur personal text. Its DEEP! And the truth.

Dear friend, Economics is entrepreneurship itself! Not that I disagree with you but it is good you know that Economics is a diverse course that pays far more than Accounting. Accountants are book keepers and I strongly believe that they lack the basic instincts to be self established. Business Admin and Economics are what makes Management as a faculty. And also note that an Economics can work anywhere in the world because they act as brain box of Aggregate Economic and management ideas as a whole.

INTROVERT:
Uniport and UI. Google CPEEL..
it's about N1. 2m as fees.

Tanx a lot friend, am really looking forward to studying the course in after my Bsc in Economics. Hopefully 2016

I think OP should have listed the criteria in which he "feels" these are the best courses to study. Anyway, in my opinion, pharmacy takes the cake reason being the wide variety of places you can CHOOSE to work in: hospitals, in community pharmacies, clinics, industries, marketing (sales repping), NGOs, government agencies, in research or you can choose to be INDEPENDENT; remunerations are great and you could also be working a day job somewhere and (if you have need for extra cash) work somewhere else in the evenings and you are properly remunerated. As a pharmacist,you can never be without a job; even if you are a lazy person, there's always a job for you! lol. //As Men of Honour... We join hands. I love being a pharmacist.

Naijakick:
If you wanted to be really honest with yourself, you'll accept that a particular set of courses in Nigeria are actually regarded at the best of all courses. You can't really blame them though, with the rate of unemployment in Nigeria these courses are the only professions that can lead to a student having a really good Job. Having this in mind you can see the Top 10 Courses To Study In Nigeria and give your comments below if you feel otherwise.



#1

Medicine

You're in the science stream and you reveal your choice of institution to your parents, we both know the course they'l advice you to go for MEDICINE. Advice of course for parents that listen and are understanding for other parents, they'll most likely force you till JAMB shows them you don't really like the profession. This reminds me of my highschool days , 70% of the class filled Medicine as their course of study. Chose!!!! Now most of them if not all are studying biochemistry or something related.

#2

Pharmacy

The next on the Top 10 Courses To Study In Nigeria is pharmacy . You couldn't make medicine right, go for the next thing to it "Pharmacy". The prestigious faculty of pharmacy, even more prestigious if you're a pharmacy student in OAU. In case you didn't know, OAU is actually the first university in Nigeria to have pharmacy as a faculty of it's own. So Pharmacy!! as NO 2

#3

Law

Yes! The prestigious and proud law students of Nigeria. This doesn't even require your parents, Once you're in the art class the first thing you fill in as your desired course of study is Law!!!.. I don't really blame they have the most beautiful girls. I don't know about your school but in OAU here? believe me i once went for a class very early so i could see Law chicks troop out in their black and white and their short skirts.. (Hope my mum isn't reading this lol.. mum am facing my Education ooh !!) So Law as NO 3.

#4

Electrical Electronics

Meet the king of the technology faculty, Elect Elect is actually a very cool course to study and they have the most intellectual students. I respect the students of the department but hey don't get me wrong, I'm a computer with Economics Student. Yeah that's right, I'm a double honour student, i have every reason to be proud *lol* . I just like elect cause you can really diversify. In elect i've met bad ass programmers, even more bad ass than programmers in my department. No 4 goes to Elect then

#5

Architecture

I for one am a great fan of this course. For now lets pretend the course isn't one of the most stressful courses you can ever choose to study, department is DOPE. Once you're good you're GOOD! and they're probably the students with one of the highest chances of getting a job in this country with an outrageous number of unemployed. They are still the fewest, that's why i don't still understand how they throw the best parties in OAU. NO 5 goes to archi.

#6

Computer Science & Engineering

Ok so you might feel i'm biased about putting computer here just because am a student of the AMAZING department but NO. Computer Science & Engineering is actually one of the best courses a tech student could choose to study. Let's face it, the world becoming more and more digital everyday. Gone are the days i have to use cash to buy food. Now with just a Sanwo card in ife here i can buy a lovely meal, now who do you think controls the future. so number 6 goes to the Computer students

#7

Nursing

Nursing definitely has to be on the list, without the help of the nurses where would the doctors before. If you argue otherwise, you definitely haven't experienced what happens to patients when the nurses in a hospital embark on a strike. Well i know what happens and the doctors would tell you they can't do it alone. So Nursing NO 7

#8

Mechanical Engineering

Some people would disagree on the ranking of Mech Engin on this list because Mechanical Engineering isn't just hard to get when trying to get into an institution but it is also very hard to study but the reason i kept it on NO 10 is because it isn't an independent course. How many Mechanical Engineering students have you met that finished school and they decide to Work on their own? Most if not all of them begin searching for Jobs and lets be sincere it's not easy to come across job opportunities these days. So Mechanical Engineering Wins slot NO 8

#9

Accounting

So this is like the first commercial course to make the list and No am not being Biased, in fact i felt very reluctant to add it to the list. The reason i added it is because that's the first course that comes to commercial students minds when it's time to pack their things to the Higher Institution. Before accounting students stone me to death, ask yourselves this question how many of you can be self established successfully without a great amount Capital.

#10

Agriculture

The last on the list is the whole faculty of agric. The reason agric is on No 10 is because of the ease with which students can get into the faculty. Soil Science, Animal Science, Agric Econs but when you look at it from the productive aspect of it and the self Establishment capabilities, agric is really an amazing course to study. There you have it, Nigeria's top 10 courses. If you feel otherwise about the other of the ranking , You can drop your thought in the comment section.
