ozolity: Threatened? No. I just was notified by a friend and coursemate that such a post was online and i wondered. While I have been on nairaland, I never new such a post was on nairaland and among my list of followed topics (since it was created using my moniker) and comments were being made in response to it...I would really want the mods to take it down ASAP! |

I'm really glad that someone decided to open a thread like this. I recently just finished my post graduate studies from 'the University of first Choice' (Go figure) for which i was admitted into in May, 2014. The duration is clearly stated in their brochure to run for 18 months (part-time). Mind you the set before mine had to throw away a whole year due to administrative lapses from the department. My biggest challenge was from my supervisor who was a pain in the neck. I only got to see him 3 times before i completed my thesis. I can go on for days but i judging from the comments on this thread, it is safe to say that post graduate studies in Nigerian Universities is in shambles... 1 Like 1 Share |

Reminds me of a joke i saw on the internet. Foreign lecturers: We are here to help you, feel free to come to me anytime. Nigerian Lecturers: 'A' is for God and 'B' is for me..the rest of the grade i'll give out at my own discretion.. something like that i guess..lol |

I spent four years doing my MSc. out of which 6 months were lost to strike, another 6 months waiting for a supervisor to be assigned/ waiting for seminar to be fixed and another 8 months waiting for external defence. But thank God, my external is coming up next monday after all d delay and postponements. I hope it doesnt get postponed again. |

dangotesmummy: What about the defense fees, 10 to 20k or more depending on department. You'll have to pay during departmental defense, then faculty defense and lastly external defense. One wonders what they use the 163k school fees for. You'll pay 110k from the second year. You are lucky if you pay it once. All for a MSc degree. |
Re: Share Your Experiences As A Postgraduate Student In A Federal University! by Glorygrace(f): 9:13pm On Jan 08, 2017 |
Post graduate studies in many Federal Universities are often prolonged by lack of support from Supervisors.This has to change to save the youth from wasting time pursuing one degree or another. |

efficiencie: Postgraduate studies at ABU isn't any much different from other universities in Nigeria i.e. the fees are high (80-120k per session), the lecturers are god-like, poor or unavailability of research facilities, delays in completion of study, some department barely have classes for PG students and PG School rules are non-binding on the lecturers, they don't give a care of what the rule says. But there are a few thing I do appreciate about the university as well ; unlike complaints from other universities, ABU has an expansive accommodation for her PG students, it has a reliable WiFi for all its students (UG/PG), general security is good and the campus is always neat and condusive, and electricity and water supply is near constant. And I've not heard of cases of lecturers asking for sex of money, maybe it does happen but definitely rare ! 1 Like |

dangotesmummy: In your previous post, you said M.Sc and not PhD. I was kinda worried that someone would spend 8 years on an M.Sc program like you claimed. |
Re: Share Your Experiences As A Postgraduate Student In A Federal University! by Elthugnificent(m): 6:53am On Jan 09, 2017 |
Adex097:Yes, the internet is really a global village and of course the nigeria factor is nothing to write home about. But believe me you no matter how they might want to frustrate the op, I believe the damage has been done which has tilted the college image. Which to me is actually a good thing; it would at least let the school authority know how the students really feel. The op just start a revolution lol. |
