10 best art courses to study For Quick Employment In Nigeria in Nigeria

1. Fine & Applied Art

After graduating from the Department of Fine & Applied Art, you can become a costume designer, fashion designer, interior decorator, painter, etc., depending on what you majored in.

Aside from the job opportunities related to this course, if you have a strong passion for art, then becoming a pro at it will definitely be a thing of profound beauty.

2. International Relations / Foreign Languages

International relations / Foreign languages are hugely underrated courses. Both courses are separate; however, since I was torn in between which one to choose, I decided to include both of them.

Studying International relations or foreign languages like mandarin (Chinese), Spanish, German, Russian and French can really open doors of employment for you at the embassies/consulates.

And the good thing is, there’s no much competition with respect to gaining admission and job openings for those courses.

Those are the 10 art courses we believe are the best in Nigerian universities. However, this doesn’t mean other courses aren’t good enough.

As we all know, Nigeria is a country where people excel in fields they didn’t study at the university. For instance, Wizkid and Davido didn’t study music in the university; however, they’ve been doing extremely well in the Nigerian music industry.

In other words, your ability to develop yourself personally will go a long way in ensuring you have a decent job or comfortable life in the future

3. Mass Communication

This is definitely one of the best art courses to study in Nigerian Universities. Mass communication refers to imparting and exchanging information on a large scale, and to a wide range of people efficiently and speedily.

Students who graduate with a degree in Mass Communication can pursue a career in journalism, broadcasting, digital communication, or media management and sales.

Above all, students who graduate with a degree in mass communication will ultimately develop mass media journalistic and technology skills, research and communication skills. Those skills can come in handy even if you end up self-employed.

4. Law

Many would argue that Law is by far the best art course offered in Nigerian universities. It is also one of the most demanding courses in Nigeria.

Notwithstanding, thousands of Nigerians apply every year for an opportunity to study law.

As the case may be, job opportunities for lawyers are in abundance. I guess this explains why the course gets a large number of applicants every year.

Best universities to study Law in Nigeria

  1. University of Benin (UNIBEN)
  2. University of Lagos (UNILAG)

5. Linguistics

Linguistics is also one of the best art courses in Nigeria universities. The goal of linguistics as a course is the enrichment of knowledge about the nature, grammar, and history of human language. Linguistics is a theoretical and applied discipline, akin to philosophy, anthropology, and cognitive psychology. The core areas of linguistic are phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics.

Been a professional art course, graduates of Linguistics have gone on to a wide variety of successful careers, from relatively vocational subjects such as speech therapy or English language teaching to generic jobs such as management or public relations.

Been a professional art course and due to the wide range of skills attained, music graduates find success in a huge array of professions, both music-related and non-music related. For example music teachers, performers, composers, academics, publishers, producers, arts administrators

A degree in political science helps prepare students for careers in government, law, campaign management, business, international organizations, and research. Political science helps you gain a thorough understanding of how power, politics, and people converge.

With a degree in Criminology and Security Studies, one can easily kickstart a career with the Nigeria Police, Civil Defense, DSSS, etc., which makes the course a good option for art students in Nigeria.

10. English Language.

Knowing English increases your chances of getting a good job in a multinational company within your home country or for finding work abroad. It’s also the language of international communication, the media and the internet, so learning English is important for socialising and entertainment as well as work!

Lastly, the English Language. There is more to English than just reading your favourite books, and if you’ve never read anything more complex like Shakespeare books then you may want to expand your mind because analysing takes brainpower. In English Language, there will be an opportunity to study modern literature, theatre, film, or even do a bit of creative writing yourself.

Despite its reputation and lack of obvious career pathways, English graduates have strong prospects, and there are a lot of applicable and relevant jobs.
