At The End, Graduates Of These Courses Will Go And Get Enlisted Into Nigerian Forces

In nigeria? Yes, I think so.

Lawd, such a crucial faculty. Anything agricultural based is key and most countries encourage the youth to take them up.......any given day. I fall under this department too and mostly, one has a job even before finishing their undergrad.

Agriculture and natural resources related courses are suppose to be the most employing departments in Africa.

Therein lies the problem with our educational system. Where we produce graduates who come out with the mind set to be employees. I recall my undergraduate days where lecturers will come to class to dictate notes and we write. No room for critical thinking or discourse to stimulate the students to think. Just go in, write notes and cram the written notes.
While I agree that some course narrow your chances of getting jobs in other industries, every course of study should be able to produce graduates with the aptitude to fit in other areas.

What do you have to say about this multidisciplinary field of study (Library and Information Science), with a contemporary nomenclature known as Information and Knowledge Management, most especially in the UK, USA, South Africa, Kenya, Uganda, etc. However, it is still referred to as Library and Information Science in Nigeria or Information Studies in Ghana. I was told the career and entrepreneurial opportunities are numerous.

@Op please let include LAW..

Most lawyer are just bail and charge.

HighIQ:
Welcome, here are some big courses with a potential of rendering those who studied it into a state of regrets.They are big courses. There names sound good to the hearing. But are these big courses really what they claim to be?. Or are their other courses or profession competing with them.? Let take a look at them in MY top 5 listings below.

1) PETROLEUM ENGINEERING: This is a very big course to many. And a lot of people who study this course are potential workers at the oil refineries and oil companies. But after these places where can a petroleum engineer work? Absolute no where! Apart for the fact that these graduates compete with graduates of other engineering courses for the limited vacancies they are equally likely to be ignored since it is a restricted course. Chemical engineering which encompasses major chemistry of engineering including Petroleum engineering are great competitors of these people. It means if a petroleum engineer is unable to get a place in the oil industry or oil company. It may become virtually impossible to get any other job due to its nature of restriction.

2) MASS COMMUNICATION: This course also sound so good but apart from the fact they are only resticted to only the mass media, graduates of English language and other related fields are also strong competitors of these people.

3) BANKING AND FINANCE: This course also sound so beautiful and it can easily attract the.mind of Jamb candidates into studying it. But the fact is that the banking sector is a very open sector to virtually any graduates even the science students and yoruba graduates. So at this time, your been a graduate of Banking and finance won't matter at all. The worst is that you are likely not going to get any Job outside the Banking sector.

4) INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: Everyone want to be an international man but does the course really profess the name it bears?

5) MEDICAL BIOCHEMISTRY: Even biochemists are highly respected not to talk of a whole Medical Bichemist. But the fact is Medical biochemistry is under Bichemistry and as a result a restricted course. So they are likely to depend only in the hospital for a job. But sadly, graduates of Medical laboratory science have taken over most of their hospitals and likely to be a great competitor or combater of these set of people.

I doubt your summation is nearly accurate
I studied Mass Communication but then i've been working for Shell Oil for over a decade now!

The workplace is so fluid that whatever you study in the university has multiple applications across sectors. Eg a petrochemical engineer may be employed in a software firm to help design computer applications for his field. Just like you have history graduates working in banks.

HighIQ by name, HighIQ by nature...great write up..thnxx

Physics/Electronics nko? Those ones feel like they're Electronics Engineering graduates

I rep petroleum engineering, jah help and bless us

DumaEmpire:
Op clearly doesnt know how employment works in Nigeria..as long as say u hold certificate if u like study shoes n sandals u go still c job dat is if u know d rite Buttons ofcourse..n am proud Historian chasing my music career

except Criminology

I know petroleum engineering will be part even before opening. A wrong notion of petroleum engineering is everywhere. Where can they work?? Ask yourself that. Where can chemical mechanical electrical work. ...


There are jobs Out there for petroleum engineers that are good and fantastic.. ...


They remain the highest paid till now.. ...


That's your opinion and that shouldn't affect my dream..

Abeg put anatomy and physiology ...infact all paramedical courses

not all paramedical courses bro what of medical lab science and radiography?

I studied biochemistry and it's like companies and hospitals employ med lab to replace us. Some because they can't afford the pay. I'm still looking out for a job opportunity and it's becoming....

Tell Us Where They Work Na Apart From Oil Company And Force Enlistment

Include Anthropology and sociology.

OP show me the chemical engineer that is working after graduating two or three years ago and I will show you petroleum engineers. .. Chemical engineering is a useless course with no future as far as I am concerned. ..


Mention the major chemical companies In 9ja.

It's true that they seem to have no job.. ..its just competition THERE ARE JOBS

Computer Science a course that will never fade away.

I'M A PROUD THINKER

I'M A PROUD PHILOSOPHER

I'M A PROUD LOGICIAN.

PHILOSOPHY RULES.

Tell Us Where They Work Na Apart From Oil Company And Force Enlistment

that's the problem. We think they can only work in oil and gas companies. They can work in plastic industry , food industry and any mining company. ...

HighIQ:
It means you all agree with me

Well done.... How about Cooperatives Management course?

Now that everyone is saying add this course and that course, soon the topic will change to 100 courses prone to unemployment. Just say there are no Jobs in Nigeria.

Almost Every Company Into Production Needs A Chemical Engr, Except There's No Production(chemical process) There: Oil And Gas, Brewery, Pharmaceutical, Food And Drinks, Just Mention It

Number 2 is so on point. My wife studied English and she has been acing media interviews more than Mass communication graduates. There are so many media/communication institutes which makes them some how irrelevant.

Op I beg What did Evans study?

Ransome engineering

Very very true ,am a graduate of petroluem engineering from futo..since 2010 i graduated no job
