Saving someone’s life is perhaps one of the most remarkable feelings in the world. Even so, not so many of us have the chance to experience this. It takes passion, a strong personality and years of study to be able to work in the medical field.
Pursuing a Medical degree is not only challenging and demanding but also competitive. Medical degrees are shaped for people who show high motivation and commitment as well as interest for sciences.
Throughout a Medicine degree, candidates are equipped with a wide range of competences, from practical abilities required for specialized hands-on tasks to communication skills needed to interact with the patients. Thus, any medical students will be able to take a simple blood sample as well as perform a complex surgical procedure.
Undoubtedly, medicine is one of the most vital fields of work – therefore there will always be a high demand of workforce needed. The employment rate for a medical graduate student is of 90%.
Due to its diverse branches, graduates from a Medical course have a variety of career choices, according to their expertise. Nursing, radiology, anaesthetics are just some of the many specialities offered in this field. Regardless of the speciality, the most important aspect needed to be taken into consideration is that medical professionals are well-respected and well-paid all over the world.
Additionally, graduates possess a series of transferable skills, such as logical reasoning, critical appraisal, listening, written and oral communication and many others. These assets are sought and highly valuable in most fields of work.
Medical courses are usually a six-year commitment, but it can vary according to the university. Most of the modern universities integrate clinical education with basic sciences from the beginning of the academic curriculum, while traditional institutions divide them into preclinical and clinical education.
Most schools understand the importance of practical knowledge, especially in this field, therefore they encourage the students to observe professional healthcare practitioners. Another way to gain practical experience is to go to different clinics and receive specialised training, followed by actual practical work.
No matter the practices of the university, always keep in mind that medical courses are structured differently in every country. Therefore, medical qualifications gained in one country are not necessarily recognised in another country.
To restore the dignity of man- that’s the motto of my alma mater. I guess we never really did understand why or what that meant. I spent 5 years in UNN and attended all 4 Campuses. I graduated from the College of Medicine as a Physiologist and one thing I learnt was how to be resourceful. I typically had to learn many things myself because our classes were combined in college till my 3rd year.
I still wouldn’t trade it, because it groomed me. Gave me friends turned family. Built the Lion spirit in me. I am actually a Super Lioness! Campus life was sweet since I lived off campus. I had nice lecturers and the ones that were just nasty. Apart from the archaic teaching methods sometimes, it was a time worthy experience. Plus, I didn’t come out a dumbass!
This program provided a fantastic opportunity to learn and grow. I really appreciated the practical approach and the clear guidance throughout, which made understanding complex concepts easier. Communication and support were generally responsive, and the resources provided were very helpful. Overall, it gave me valuable skills and confidence that I can apply in real-life situations. I would highly recommend this program to any student looking to enhance their knowledge and experience.

View moreMy university is a good citadel of learning with good and qualified lecturers, but a university of its status, living conditions in some hostels doesn’t really speak well of it, then some practical equipments are no where to be found when needed despite students paying for these
View moreIt’s a highly acclaimed school, but it is very stressful and terrible for mental health. The facilities are seriously lacking, and the lecturers seem to be unmotivated sometimes. I cannot blame the lecturers because they work under harsh conditions and have to rush through batches of students. There are no holidays, especially for medical students.
View moreUnn is a school that is highly competitive and where lecturers don’t make it easy for students.
A school where most lecturers find it insulting for a student to complain about things that are wrong.
A place where stress is multiplied increasingly
View moreThe university is good.
We do have good and bad teachers.
Honestly the facilities are not enough,
Hostel life is average.
We also face strikes sometimes which lengthen or stress someone’s stay in the university.
My school in a general is a place you would learn all about life. Consisting of people with different cultures, you will have different views about life. On the contrary, you might be faced with challenges as you would have little time to assimilate a lot with the whole stress that makes you feel like quitting. In all, it’s an experience, a good one to some and bad to others. To me, it’s all good. It has helped shape me to be great.

The accommodations are not really in good shape, the amenities are not really up to par, and frequently, the prospect of going to class is particularly deterring owing to crowded lecture halls. Things are not becoming any worse because of the teachers. Actually, my program offers excellent professional opportunities.
