3 key areas Nigerian students in higher institutions must prioritize before graduating

The journey through higher education is a transformative phase in a student’s life, filled with opportunities and challenges that shape their future.

As the pursuit of knowledge intertwines with personal growth, it becomes crucial for students to make wise choices that will benefit them in the long run. To enhance their academic and professional journey, three priorities should take center stage for every higher institution student.

1. Internship, whether paid or unpaid

Internships offer a gateway to the real world, bridging the gap between theory and practice. Whether paid or unpaid, they provide invaluable exposure to the professional environment, giving students a taste of their chosen field.

By participating in internships, students gain hands-on experience, build industry connections, and acquire essential skills that classroom lectures alone cannot offer.

While paid internships are enticing due to financial benefits, unpaid ones should not be overlooked. The experience gained from an unpaid internship can prove equally rewarding, offering immense learning opportunities and a chance to stand out in a competitive job market.

Ultimately, internships lay the foundation for a successful career, enabling students to make informed decisions about their future pathways.

2. Volunteering in NGOs or for a social cause

Volunteering is a powerful catalyst for personal growth and societal impact. Engaging in community service through NGOs or other organizations enables students to become agents of change in their communities.

Beyond academic achievements, volunteering cultivates empathy, compassion, and a sense of social responsibility.

By dedicating time and effort to causes they care about, students broaden their horizons and gain a deeper understanding of real-world issues.

Additionally, volunteering equips them with essential soft skills, such as teamwork, leadership, and communication, which are highly sought after by employers. Embracing the spirit of giving back through volunteering not only enriches the lives of others but also nurtures a well-rounded individual ready to make a positive difference in society.

3. Getting good grades, no matter what

Amidst the pursuit of internships and volunteer work, the significance of academic excellence must never be underestimated. Achieving good grades remains a cornerstone of academic success, opening doors to future opportunities, scholarships, and postgraduate studies.

While it is essential to strike a balance between extracurricular activities and academics, students should strive to excel in their studies.

Good grades demonstrate dedication, discipline, and a thirst for knowledge, setting students apart as diligent and committed learners. Moreover, a solid academic record lays the groundwork for a strong professional reputation and career advancement in the long run.

Balancing the three priorities, students can unlock their full potential, achieving holistic growth that transcends the boundaries of a classroom.

In conclusion, every higher institution student should prioritize internships, both paid and unpaid, as stepping stones to real-world experience. Volunteering in NGOs or other organizations cultivates empathy and social responsibility, fostering a well-rounded individual ready to make a positive impact.

And lastly, excelling academically should remain a primary focus, as it paves the way for future opportunities and personal growth. By embracing these three key priorities, students can navigate the path to success and emerge as empowered individuals, prepared to conquer the challenges that lie ahead.
