Lecturing is good. You teach the same thing for 35 years. Infact you teach it so often you memorise everything word for word. Then you.have younglings who will trade their genitals for a good grade. Strike. A chance to sit at home and do nothing. ![]() 5 Likes |

QueenVaji: Don't pick up this job if you are'nt passionate about it. It is a noble profession that has its reward if done diligently; It avails you the chance to develop yourself and do some side business if time permits. You must be ready to continuously impact your immediate environment by teaching and researching. My plea- try to write articles that solves problem and not basically to seek promotion. Regarding the pay, it's somewhat minuscule to public perception and expectations; if you want money, don't pick up this job please; if you want sex, refrain from this noble profession. It is an interesting job and you will enjoy yourself in this field if you come into it with the right orientation and expectations. I urge and enjoin you not to see yourself as a demi-god when eventually you become one. Lecturers-students relationship must be ethical, friendly and impacting with strict borders to compromise. As a young lecturer, you will face some few challenges 1) Meagre salary 2) Temptation to extort 3) Girls running after you 4) Disappointment regarding your expectations 5) Unhealthy politics However, stand strong and be firm. Shalom! 5 Likes 1 Share |

QueenVaji: Except you just have a passion for it! In any case, if you settle for this job, be ready to face the retardation in financial progress that comes with it. Research income would have been a way out, but FG isn't interested in funding research! Over 85% of the society and the students you teach, won't appreciate your hard labour, rather they'll worship entertainment and seek ways to get rich quick such as cybercrimes. Many of us aint happy we chose that path. The rewards are extremely paltry! 1 Like 1 Share |

One of our major not-for-profit mandates is to attract and train young and eager African students and position them to become influential future researchers. In this regard, we have a long-term goal to identify, nurture and invest in talented African students who will go on to become world class researchers. What we offer As part of our continued support for the academic achievements of promising students, we are launching our offer of scholarships to talented undergraduate students for 2021/2022.

However, we remain interested in exceptional students who 1) are studying one of Economics, Mathematics, Statistics and 2) have a strong desire to be mentored for an economics PhD in the future. Point 2) is an important condition for a successful scholarship application. Specific eligibility criteria are as follows 1. Be a university student majoring in the above-mentioned courses (i.e. Economics/Mathematics/Statistics) 2. Have a CGPA of at least 4.5/5.0 or equivalent; students with a CGPA lower than 4.5/5.0 are also encouraged to apply if they stand out in other areas. The requirement to maintain the scholarships is that the stated CGPA be achieved each academic year. 3. Selected BaumBrains Scholars who graduate with top GPAs will attend our graduate-level certificate course in mathematics and economics. Those who succeed in the certificate course will be given a chance to work with and be mentored by our researchers. They will also be supported to attend leading graduate schools for an economics PhD.
