Best Courses in Nigeria
Nigerian
has been beleveled by massive unemployment in recent years. Many jobs
are being lose and few jobs are being create mainly by the private
sectors. One of the essential reasons of having a higher education is to
secure a better job.
Though in Nigeria, there are limited
jobs avaliable when compare with large number of job seeker. Despite
government policy and their perceived conviction of finding a lasting
solution for unemployment and youth empowerment, much has not been
changed recently.
In as much as the content of this
article is not about unemployment, but it helps to drive us and shine
more light about choosing courses or programme in our universities for a
better employability.
In these tough unemployment
condition where more graduates are joining already graduated student in
search of a better job, for future students planning to enroll for their
higher education degrees in Nigeria univerisities, there is need to
consider and choose a course that holds a better future for you than
just going to university because you want to follow other or you want to
please society for being a graduate.
I stand to be
corrected. In most developed world, the department of labour and
statistic usually publish a labour outlook report which predicts jobs
that will be in high demand currently and within a stipulated time-frame
based on economic trend.
This is a vital information for
those who wish to switch field and students about enrolling on for a
course in the university, but there is no such statistic in Nigeria
which could server as a guide. Which course hold a better future for you
in Nigeria in term of employment and reasonable payment?.
I
do not in anyway wish the bring down any field or profession but the
fact still remains that in Nigeria, there are some fields that you
hardly see an advert about a vacant position. Some of the course that I
listed here can be rewarding with high chance of employment and big
bucks salary.
1. Health care
Health care is an indispensible area in human
endeavour. We can carry out activities soundly only when we are healthy.
No matter the way you look at it Medicine as a course hold better
employment opportunity. There are other mergering field within the
medical field, biomedical engineering, telemedicine ect. that can boost
you chance of employment.
2. Engineering
Engineering
is without mention a good field to choose. Many will argue with me that
there are a lot of engineering graduates that loiters along the street
with no job. Beside being true but the opportunities are glaring.
If
you are thinking of engineering course, I presumably beleive that
telecommunication specialities is that bomb. things like antenna
technology and signal processing. Also the next hot area within computer
is mobile apps. Almost every tech guy in Nigeria is preaching about web
development and design while limited companies are in mobile apps
world. You can fit in by learning java for Java 2 ME and andriod apps or
objective C for Iphone and Ipad apps development
3. Environmental
The
whole world is pushing and moving towards green evironment, green
production and green energy. Alternative energy is an emegring area that
will bring back life to graduate who followed this path in the degrees.
The courses to consider within these areas are biotechnology (biogas
production), solar energy generation and bio-remediation.
4. Marketing
Almost
every company is in the business to make profit. As Nigerian economy
constantly expands and grows, there will be a continous need for
marketers who will use their professional skills to make sure that their
products are not only produce but customers are waiting for it to be
produce. Consider Marketing within the faculty of management science
5. Designers
Graphic
design, animator and video game designer is a constantly growing area
in Nigeria that might interest you. If you are interested, you can
choose to study computer graphics in the university, I wish to emphasis
that passion drives most of the things we enjoy doing. Make sure that
the passion is there before starting.
This is not the
exhausted list of the best study field or professions that has a better
opportunity and possible big salary. You can suggest you own field and
it might serve as an idea for others.
Enjoy………
