I am a graduate of M.sc in Mass Comm from Noun and i enjoyed studying there because i was able to combine working in a bank while studying and raising a family. Secondly, the staff of Noun are the most courteous i have had the chance of meetingin a tertiary institution. I did not experience the corrupt side. Besides, in conventional institutions, there is corruption. Thirdly, there is readily available reading material written by Professors from conventional University. The materials are so rich that i wish i had access to them during my undergraduate days. Finally, research wise, i had the best experience. Because, lecturers in conventional university are assigned to supervise us. So if lecturers from University of Ibadan, University of Lagos, FUTA, Uniben, supervise ur project and thesis and you are still faulting the end result, then there is no difference between students or Open University and conventional universities. Research wise, i learnt alot at Noun and i am able to teach others what i learn't. People should stop distracting and discouraging others. Its not everyone that will have d chance to attend conventional institutions. Also, note that the caliber of people studying there are working class people who have busy schedules.

Folks need to understand that NOUN isn't a conventional school and not for young folks....its meant for those who want to work and go to school at d same time...d motto says 'Work and Learn'. So coming here and dissing the school isn't called for. Look for what suits you and stick to it. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Buhari willing to end Bsc, HND dichotomy – JAMB The Registrar/Chief Executive of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, (JAMB), Prof. Dibu Ojerinde Wednesday said President Muhammadu Buhari is willing to implement the waver that will end the Bsc and HND dichotomy. Buhari received the updated report on the Bsc and HND saga which was presented by the Permanent Secretary Federal Ministry of Education, MacJohn Nwaobiala last Tuesday. Ojerinde who was part of the delegation said Buhari is willing to end the dichotomy. He disclosed this in Abuja when he spoke with few selected newsmen on how to solve the lingering crisis of admission into universities. The JAMB boss revealed that: “The last administration set up a committee to look at how we can now merge the two, the report was ready but it was not handled by the last administration.” His words: “The system has not given adequate vision for the other levels of education. We have not encouraged technical education, we have not encouraged Teachers education also, in fact we have not encouraged Agricultural education to the extent that everybody feels that the only way to survive is to go to the University. “The only way to make it is to have a degree, so I am saying we should revisit our system, we should look at why candidates don’t want to go to polytechnics, and we should look at why they don’t want teachers’ education we should also revisit why they don’t want agriculture. “By our experience, most people will like to study law, engineering, medicine, accountancy, these are the top courses been sought for in the universities nobody wants to study education. So I see we have problem in that area and I am sure the Federal Ministry of Education is trying to solve that problem. “First of all Technical Education, there’s dichotomy between Bachelors degree and National Diploma or Higher National Diploma, (HND). It was one of the things presented to Mr. President to find a way of implementing the waver of the dichotomy between HND and the Bsc degree. The so called HND should now be changed to Btech which means Bachelor of Technology. “Former President Musa Yar’Adua may his soul rest in peace, said he doesn’t have any problem with Btech. Unfortunately, government also has not sorted this entire problem. And there are such cases of people like me in this country, I wouldn’t have been able to read, I wouldn’t have been able to go to school. So what I am saying is, government should look at how we can improve technical education. “Let me refer to what Oby Ezekwensili the former Minister of Education said, she was determined to implement Btech in our Technical System, college of Education. All this places should be well equipped for Btech. “Four colleges of Education have been upgraded to universities of Education, you will see the rush into those universities now because they can now get bachelor’s degree. And when they come to the public they will not be a push away. So this is where we are, I think if I go by what we saw on Wednesday, President Buhari and the Vice President listened and they were interested in what we presented.” |

[quote author=chowlade post=36527611][b][size=10pt][i]1. National Open University has been barred from the compulsory National youth Service Scheme due to not meeting up with N.U.C Specifications. Who cares?? By the way nysc and NOUN are currently in negotiations B.S.C Nursing in National Open university of Nigeria has been withdrawn That too is currently been negotiated There Is Endemic Corruption In The National Open University Of Nigeria fees Charges due to the E-payment of School fees. The conventional uni u attended isnt any better.... NOUN Centers across the country are the worst educational environment you can ever think of in the country that an average primary school is better off utter bullshiit!! NOUN student doesn't participate in the compulsory NYSC They will...pretty soon NOUN student are less Employed on the field due to lack of experience once again....utter bullshit NOUN student are not paid the stipulated N10000 0r 15000 after industrial attachment 70% of conv uni students arent paid either Students do not attend lectures in Noun, they only read their course materials which are not always readily available for collection in their School library Lies!! Lectures are everyday and materials are ever ready Young NOUN Students are easily turn into destitute. My neighbors that are studying in NOUN, Smoke Weed/Cigarette, Alcohol, Womanize e.t.c till they eventually graduate a friend of mine died two months ago cos of his drinking and smoking habit.......something he got from uniport!! NOUN Student are not researchers They're the best in nigeria..believe me T.M.A (Tutor marked Assignment) portal has been hacked, students go directly there to collect readily available answers for test and examination, thereby enabling student to no longer need to study for TMA to get 30/30 in the Tutor marked assignment cause it is share, for sale e.t.c amongst themselves of which same Exposed TMA are to be repeated again in their examination. You dont know wat you're saying.. TMAs can be printed and taken home to work on. You are given a period of time to before the TMA portal is closed...HELLO!!! Dats why its called an ASSIGNMENT NOUN is not on Nigeria university rankings according to the best institution in Nigeria. so therefore not competing with the conventional universities Ur conv unis are not among the best 1000 in the world....utter shame There is total confusion in the System Says who?? Student union is totally forbidden in the tertiary institution mention an open uni in the world dat has a student union In short, the National Open University Of Nigeria is the worst Tertiary Institution anywhere across the globe. I will therefore strongly urge the National University commission to Look into the System of this tertiary institution and removed the institution out of the existing educational system in Nigeria Youre probably mad cos a NOUN graduate got a job before u.

I graduated from there, Open University.. Right now, I Manage a consulting firm.. With 2-female staffs under me, an OND holder and a ssce holder. Most company are not after your certificate but what you can offer them. Many of thsee so called graduate don't know any thing as we do think. I've once seen a graduate Computer Science Olabisi Onabanjo that can't type CV. So every man to his opinion. Thanks. 6 Likes 1 Share |
