True.

Most courses in the Faculty of Agriculture are 5 year courses, but at the end of the day, they don't give you any advantage over people who studied other courses.
who told you that wash? I studied Agricultural course, have my own farm, I consult for people and I still work full time with salary over 200k per month with just 7 years experience. Tell me how many courses can beat that. Non on my graduate mate is currently unemployed. We still have whatsapp group to monitor each other. Many offers full for us that we can't even occupy

Any mumu can go into Agriculture without studying Agriculture.

The mums must be highly wealthy to be able to employ experts else the mumu will burn himself or herself dead. You actually think agribusiness of today is cutlass And hoe

As it is almost time for jamb to give admission this year, the portal for change of institution and course is still open for those who wish to have a change in their course.

Well let me put it this way, this thread is for you to comment the course you think is a bad idea for anyone to study.

Consider job opportunities and the future, will the course still be relevant in 20,10 years time.

Mine - Zoology (especially if you want to base in NIGERIA) just change it before its too late. You can change to ANY OTHER AGRIC COURSE


See u - which course Jonathan read no be zoology?.


That course could be turned into a money maker if truly practiced.

Don’t be myopic and thinking of zookeeper work.


U already know Nigerian govt fails in their responsibly so even medicine self e worwor

Am happy for you, cause some of the lecturers that lecture in OAU are also lecturing geology in other schools that's whyy... Some lecturers go as teaching in the north. kiss
You're very lucky you didn't study the course , the lecturers here will frustrate you out of the department. Or you sleep with the lecturers and they'll pass you across to other lecturers.
Wtf grin grin... That's serious o and it's a very good course o... Some lecturers are just sadist on a norms and a friend of mine in OAU also complained about the school lecturers grin

Don't know about other schools but OAU geology lecturers were Imported from hell. grin grin cheesy
And you can't graduate at the stipulated year (4). I have a senior with the matric 2010. The guy don old for the department. I don't think the guy get career for the department ohhh. When I resumed ehhn I was proud of the department but when I got to part 2 my eyes cleared, some of my mates crossed in part one but I stayed, when I saw that I don't have any future in the department I left. I went for a field trip in part 2 almost died cause we were breaking rocks sample had to take pain-killer for 3 days. After the exam I made up my mind to leave the department. If you're not strong physically don't branch the department cause you'll stand and work in the sun for hours. I pity my course mates ohhh...

We have Underemployed and Unemployed Health Practitioners but you can't compare them to thousands and thousands of Biochemistry and other Related Graduates out there.
Medicals, Most times ,usually have a Headstart.
Everybody didn't do "gabbage in gabbage out" as you stated. People who are not educated produce pure water (simple distillation technique is all that is needed) and yoghurt consumed by Nigerians. We even import tooth pick.
Most interestingly, graduate trainee jobs in banks and many multinationals are open to all university graduates with 2.1 regardless of your course of study.
Also, research institutes, NAFDAC do employ graduate biochemists but it mainly man-know-man thing.
With 2.1, M. SC & PhD in Biochemistry, you are certain of good career in lecturing and research both locally and internationally.
Finally, the creme-del-la-creme of Biochemistry career is the manufacturing industry such as Nestle, P&G, Nigerian Breweries, International breweries, Guinness, Coca Cola, PZ etc. They don't employ much and their recruitment is very competitive but a management position there is highly lucrative. You start to earn what an MBBS graduate can only dream of.
If you are connected, DPR and NNPC employ biochemistry graduates as environmentalist and quality control officers.
The problem really is that Nigeria produce more graduates that the labour market can absorb. Everybody wants to go to school and get a good job by fire by force.
I have heared of a doctor who earns 33k in a private hospital and another who is yet to get a good job for 5 years.
No course guarantees job anymore. Many pharmacists are sales representatives (glorified drivers) in pharmaceutical industries. I know nurses that earn 20k in private hospitals.
Many Chemical & Petroleum Engineers are teaching chemistry in private schools with salary of 15k-25k.
I have read the lamentations of graduate doctors here who are struggling to get a place for housemanship for 2 years.

Run away from Life sciences, Nigeria is not developed enough for those courses. Courses like biochemistry, microbiology. And others like Physiology, Anatomy and so. They are wash


Ps: please I'm in need of a job.

Just finished NYSC, I have a B.Tech in biochemistry. I'm 24 years old, smart and tech savy. Computer skills, HSE1,2&3, Excel, PowerPoint, baby programmer (Python), Adobe Pr, Adobe Ae. All in the my bag

Also good with analytical tasks and some experience as a project manager.

Kindly link me up with opportunities. I'm looking for any challenging opportunity to learn and grow while contributing my best.

Thank you, God bless.

But wait ooo
Is my eyes paining me or what
Somebody has B.Tech in Biochemistry?
Abeg I need the name of that school

Nothing goes for nothing.
1. You spend 8-10 years to become a doctor and you consider yourself lucky if you get employed in government hospital and earn around 200k. You need to study more to grow in your career.
2. B. SC Biochemistry + NYSC = 5 years (You can land a good job at this stage that pays 200k+). M. SC- 2 years (you qualify for lecturing position and management trainee position in multinationals if you are good) and PhD 3- years (you are now unstoppable, flying in every dimensions in your career).
There is no almighty formular or short cut for greatness. Pay the price and become great.
