Exploring the Relevance of Work-study Programme in Tertiary Institutions in Nigeria

Abstract

This study explored the usefulness of work-study programme to students in tertiary institutions in Nigeria intending to inculcate dignity of labour in them, bearing in mind the seeming belief of many youths on the application of Machiavellian Principle on wealth creation in contemporary times. It also illustrates the usefulness of the scheme to indigent students, using data from a secondary source and content analysis as a methodology. In its concluding remarks, the study argues that the programme if introduced and properly implemented could restore the traditional belief of people in work, success and life.
