Am just laughing and still laughing but this time around laughing in Spanish. I think aside inferiority complex, many people have failed to do their research on the genesis of polytechnics, colleges of education and university before they out of anger and I repeat INFERIORITY complex post their argument. Every body has spoken well but I think the best think for every one is to go back and check the various act that establishes this institution may be that will go along way to answer whether or not the FG should make NCE, HND, Bsc, BPharm, MMBS equivalent and that polytechnics and colleges of education should start doing masters as well as PHD. Still laughing sha |

Or the cgpa of ur profs instead of urs ?No, interviewers would call only degree holders because they believe that degree holders probably passed through a professor before getting the cgpa, which makes it more valuable.

U dey mind am? Abia Poly students always distinguish themselves academically. The issue is that they look down on us, bt it doesn't stop firms and banks from giving us first berth during IT and after HND than the other tertiary institutions around. I believe in my cert and ability than over bloated B.Sc degrees without brain wey full everywia. |

I have stayed in Aba for so long, that i can identify them on sight - trust me. If u were to be a guy, I'd have taken u seriously. Gals r known to look down on people when it comes to issues like this, and they are the ones who are the most gullible and fish brain. So I'll excuse u. U based ur excuses on gullibility and ability to speak good English, what a myopic way of judging people. I still challenge u that an average Abia Poly student will stand his ground academically with students from the best Universities in Nigeria in their respective corresponding courses of study, quote me anywhere. You said u can spot a great elephant anywhere, cus u lived in Aba. Another rubbish way of judgement, now let me ask u, how many top tertiary institutions are in Aba and how many of them have as many students as Abia Poly do. Like I posted to the guy above, d problem we have is not becus we are polytechnic, our problem is becus the schl is located in Aba, and many people underrate it's ability. I have seen thousands of them who underrate the schl at first and were glad to finally get admission to study in the school cus of the quality of education and competition in d schl. Your type is like those who becus the schl is in ur town, u prefer to go Nekede or Imo Poly Umuagwo, when it is a glaring truth that we are on par or even better than these institutions. Keep underrating it, while the ones graduating there have never regretted it, instead they shine the line everywhere they go. U sound like one bitter person who underrates everyone, cus of school, it's bcus of people like u that such a matter of this magnitude has been dragging for so long and had to be taken to court. Discrimination, cus this one is Poly and the other one is Uni. 60% of what they are chunning every year from University are half-baked and have only degree no brain. U can say the same about Poly students, bt then they have dedicated a better half of their time in schl and IT learning the technicals of their courses, and even if he is not too good in the theory, he can beat anyone with the practical aspect. See if the can't be the same, make it a level playing ground. Is not even as if there are jobs waiting, cue in the EEDs, small business, and Business law courses I have been taught over the course of 4 year span.

Aside d discrimination, polytechnics requirement for admission and so on... Why is it dat university stdnts dnt want FG to equate dem, is it dat dey ar afraid of d challenges dey wld face frm their HND counterpart or wat ? What if FG decides to review polytechnic sysytem and equate HND and Bsc and the discrimination is totally eradicated, wld u be able to prove ur HND counterpart dat u ar beta dan dem ? Cos me I dnt knw why Bsc holders ar alwz very concerned and quickly take offence each time dis issue arises |

Normality:I wish i read all what u typed, but i didn't. , but trust me when i say I don't care if they equate them now-now, it doesn't in any way run me down. It's not a function of sch, it's a function of individual ability. That doesn't change the fact that Abia Poly students suck to me, am even seeing a couple of them now, and it's the same old story. There are polys i respect but Abia poly isn't 1 of them. Let me also tell you the reason why banks prefer you guys for IT, don't be deceived into thinking it's because you guys are smarter (am not generalizing anyway), it's because your IT duration is a year, and it saves banks the inconvenience of conducting test/interviews for ITs twice in a yr , which would have been the case if they go for Uni IT students. 3 Likes |

pDude: I thank God! Having been to d Polytechnic was my greatest decision in life...I thot University was better or more challenging...and so I went further after my stay in d Poly...but I found out it's not anywhere to be compared with each other...many of ur professors don't even come to class, so many unintelligent doctors, lecturers who can't speak correct English like yu...and so yu guys sit down and shout unnecessarily...FYI and quote me anywhere, PGD or whatever u call it, is a complete repetition or dubbing of d HND syllabus...so why recommend it as a bridge between HND and Masters? It's a waste of money and time, many professional bodies don't even recognize it except u have a Masters...I guess yu don't even know that...how many polytechnics are involved in cultism compared to Unis? Mumu undergraduate wey u be! As yu can see, I've interviewed a lot of yu, and what many of yu carry in ur brains are mostly packaging with zero skills...inability to deliver, lack of concepts and ideas, pride, incompetence, etc...yu always want dat high salary, but u don't even have d skills and u're not ready to acquire them...anyone who passes tru a good polytechnic will not only have dat zeal to work, but skills dat can make him/her better in the market...anyway in my own field and a few others, HND and BSc are treated same way, most firms even prefer HND cos dey work better...so get a life and stop bragging about a degree dat doesn't earn yu a good job automatically! Some companies would hire yu quickly when dey find out u have an OND/HND certificate before ur Masters... 1 Like |
Re: HND vs First Degree Battle Is Now In Court by JEITO: 11:37am On Jul 07, 2014 |
Wen I was an undergraduate in d university, we had a course called,' engineer in the society' during the course we understood that as a polytechnic HND holder, in the engineering family tree, your position is that of a technologist not an engineer. That's why HND holders that want to switch to Uni, start from 300L. But it is kinda belittling if u ask me. |

Take it to any court, HND can never be equal to a degree, if you have one the best you can do is go to the University. I have NCE three years before i went to University for a direct entry for another four years of study. So dont waste your time. Polytechnic as the name implies is to raise technician to support professionals. |
Re: HND vs First Degree Battle Is Now In Court by Mayorboi(m): 12:36pm On Jul 07, 2014 |
Lets all get something clear; using the engineering family as an instance, the minimum requirement to be an Engineer is a B(eng) in the chosen field. And this is what the university offers. There is a clear difference between an engineering technologist and an engineer. The polytechnics graduate engineering technologists. Now, a company looking to hire an engineer goes for the B(eng) holder coz he possess the minimum requirement. And same applies vice-versa. They Nigerian unemployment level has disrupted this system leading to all these confusion. N/B: There is no discrimination... The HSE holder is simply the engineering technologist, while the degree holder is the engineer. |

I dont know what Medcine, Electrical engineering, Computer science are doing in the University. They should be polytechnic. Government is not funding and standardizing Polytechnic. No wonder we are still backward technologically. University can never contribute to nation technology growth. The answer is Poly. Kill me. Its the fact. Ask Employers out there. |
