Millennium Fellowship Project: RESEARCH in MODERN MEDICINE
This project tends to change the attitude of young students and undergraduate alike with regards to research.
Research can go a long way in improving our health system thereby improving lives and this can only be carried out mainly by students.
Because they believe that research Is only for those in the higher institution,and those in higher institution ends up conducting researches and dump them in the school shelf.
This program tends to correct the thinking of you students towards research, helping them develop skills that will help them become good researchers in the future like how to collect,handle and analyze data using some analytical tools like SPSS,R etc and also to enlighten undergraduate students more on the importance of publishing their research works to help the government make a more informed decision concerning our health system.
The program will run for 6 months,4 months intensive hands-on training and coaching with the young senior secondary school students on using analytical tools including SPSS and R and data collection and handling to equip them for research work in the future and then a 1 month project on a research topic of local concern in health to practice what they've learned.
Then finally 1 month of weekly seminar for undergraduate students to further strengthen their passion for research and publishing their research work, including cost effective ways to do it!
Currently, we're on the third month and by February 2026, we'll round up the program.
