With emphasis on tertiary institutions churning out job creators rather than job seekers, students in schools of higher learning nationwide have outlined their plans after graduating. With the labour market swelling yearly, some want to be self-employed, while others desire more certification and knowledge. ADEBIMPE SARUMI (FOUNTAIN UNIVERSITY) reports.
The rush and craze for university admission among youths is no less encouraging. Many students see it as avenue to upgrade their status, others see it as an opportunity for learning and new experience. For some it is an opportunity to be certificated in certain fields, and start earning through knowledge gain. However, once they start rounding off their course of study, it is not uncommon for students to start thinking of the next thing.
Speaking to CAMPUS LIFE, Amuwa Olufemi, a 400-Level student, at Redeemer’s University, said: “After graduation, I plan to focus on my automobile business
I’ve always been passionate about cars, and I’m excited to build a business that will make a lasting impact on the industry and provide exceptional services to my customers.
“I want to be my own boss and create something from scratch, I’m excited to take the risks and challenges that come with starting a business, and I’m confident that with hard work and determination, I can achieve my goals.
I also believe that my business will be successful because I’m passionate about cars and I’m committed to providing excellent customer service.”
Omowumi Olawale, an HND 2 student, at Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) said after completing her studies, she planned to further her education.
