Top 5 Hardest University Courses

Although we are talking about top 5 hardest University Courses, it's
worthy of note that there's no such thing as an "easy" course of study
in the tertiary institution. Despite the promises of online diploma
mills, there simply is no shortcut to a university degree.


Whether you're pursuing a part time degree or at a traditional full
time course, getting a real university education takes a significant
investment of time and effort. Anyone who tells you it will be easy is
either ignorant or lying. We have made some research, and here's our
list of top 5 hardest University Courses you can study in Nigerian
Universities.

Engineering
Congratulations Engineers! Now you finally have some proof for what
you've been telling everyone all along: yours is the hardest major.
From chemical to civil to electrical to mechanical, the courses you
take in chemistry, physics, calculus, statistics, geology, biology,
and other tough prerequisits give you the lowest rate of As and the
highest rate of Cs for any major. Because of this, the path to
becoming an Engineer has a notoriously high dropout rate not just in
Nigeria, but elsewhere in the World – even in Harvard !

Life sciences
It's a rare student who doesn't find at least one or two concepts that
trip him up in cell biology class. The life sciences include anatomy,
biochemistry, neuroscience, biology, genetics, zoology, and more
tricky subjects, landing this field just behind engineering on the low
GPA spectrum. Many graduates of a life sciences path go on to careers
in the medical, dental, or veterinary fields, which famously require
as many as five to six or eight more years of difficult schooling,
internship, and residency after a bachelor's degree is earned. Ask
anyone reading Vet-Med in UNN and he will brief you!

Business & management
You may think what your boss does is not difficult at all, and you may
be right; a degree in management is probably not what makes this
category a difficult one. It more likely lands here thanks to the
challenges of getting a degree in finance or accounting. Either way,
information shows that well below half of business and management
students are able to pull off a 3.5 CGPA or above during graduation,
and they average the second-longest amount of time in which students
complete their degrees.

Physical sciences
Physics, chemistry, and geology all fold into this major, making it
one of the hardest courses in the University. With the lowest
percentage of students able to work full-time and the fourth-lowest
rate of students with GPAs over 3.5, majoring in this field proves to
be a challenging undertaking. And the uphill battle doesn't end after
graduation. A glut of graduates, a poor economy, and a move toward
cleaner energy has created a troubling outlook for chemistry
graduates.

Social/behavioral sciences
This category seems to be a popular choice for students seeking an
easy A, but they could do so more easily by picking something else.
The social and behavioral sciences encapsulate what are sometimes
known as the "soft sciences": psychology, economics, sociology,
anthropology, and political science. Although they are much more
closely related by GPA to some of the easy major entries than they are
to engineering, the social and behavioral sciences house the
fourth-lowest number of full-time workers and are tied for shortest
median degree completion time.
