Best Engineering Courses in Nigeria, their Salary & Admission Requirements

Best Engineering Courses in Nigeria, their Salary And Admission Requirements.

What are the best Engineering Courses in Nigeria, what are their salary expectations, How about their Job availability and opportunities, What are their admission requirements and which universities are the best to study them?

Well, if all this question is what is running through your mind right now, then you are highly welcome to this page that will answer all, I mean “all the questions that are in your mind right now”

I always advise my students “Before you make a decision of picking up any course, it is highly advisable to make research on how profitable that course will be to you now and in the future”.

Now you may also want to know what makes a course outstanding among others, right? Okay, here we go…

Things To Consider When Choosing An Engineering Course

Good Engineering Courses will also meet the following:

1. Job Availability:

Of course, you know that we go to school to acquire knowledge and then use the knowledge to our own profit either by being self-employed, hired, contracted, or employed (full time or part-time). So what will you say of any course that cannot surpass this? Well, I will say “such course doesn’t worth considering ”.

Why do I say this? Life is all about values and anything that is not valued in life is considered irrelevant and such can not bring development or progress to anyone that has or owns it. Good courses must be able to generate huge and numerous employment opportunities and job availabilities to its graduates.

2. Salary Expectations:

There is an amount of salary that should never be expected of a graduate who spent so much on running his or her program in the tertiary institution. Of course, a graduate is bound o spending hundreds of thousands to go through the tertiary institution, and also spent so much time studying, doing assignments and so on and such shouldn’t just graduate just to see him or herself taking a job that will only earn him or her a penny as salary. Good and profitable Engineering courses provide good jobs with huge salary pay to their graduates.

3. Demand:

Good Engineering courses have high service demands both in the labor market, in its professional field, and in the society at large. The rate of demand for the services of any course will determine the level of its Job availability and employment opportunities.

More so, such demand should not be restricted to just one geographical location. I say this because you may become completely irrelevant if you study a course whose demand is just limited to a certain geographical location and then you happen to travel to another country in which your course of study is not considered at all.

JAMB Subject Combination for Engineering Courses.

Almost all Engineering Courses have the same subject combination. Quote me right, “I said almost all” and not all because some Engineering courses might require you to offer one or two different subjects other than the 4 well-known Engineering subjects which are English, mathematics, chemistry, and physics.

But the general Jamb combination for Engineering Courses in English, Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry (Where candidates can replace chemistry with any other subject that satisfies their subject requirement).

Where can An Engineer Work?

Engineers can work almost everywhere. Most engineers are usually employed to work in laboratories, offices, industries, and companies (Construction and Production Companies) While other Engineers may take part in outdoor construction Sites, production Sites, and also in oil and gas exploration sites (Especially for Marine, Gas, Petroleum and Chemical Engineers).

Meanwhile, many other Engineers may be employed to direct and monitor operations and also solve onsite problems. Engineers do a lot of traveling to different worksites and plants to oversee equipment function in the work site settings.

For Example, Mechanical engineers travel and work all over the world. Finally, Engineers can work anywhere at any time in any industry or company.

Take away advice.

Engineering Courses are one of the best and most selling courses in the world. Engineering Courses like chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Aeronautic Engineering, Automobile Engineering, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, etc are estimated to grow bigger and bigger in years to come.

To create your career on any of them. these engineering courses and stand a chance for a better future.
