You are a half-baked graduate if you can't write a formal article without using pidgin English.
NB: your point number 8. Am disappointed.

Numbers (9) and (10) to me are off the points.
Not only half baked graduates enjoy porn. and partake in discussions patterning their cult escapades way back in school.
OP I noticed an overtone of been judgemental in your write up, rather understand that frustration is d bane of Nigerian graduates.

Dear Rapmoney,

Kindly be aware that your points of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering are totally wrong!

You do not study those course to change engine oil or "common" lamp holder. It's a task anyone can lay their hands on. That sounds to me like "you study telecom Engineering but can't fix a broken phone"

But you're half baked Engineering grad if you don't know anything about safety. Let's start here.

Hey, Ramponey could have a point, Yes Mech & Elect Eng is not about changing oil but we do have a good number of them who common apprenticeship mechanics swindles day in day out. But the truth must be said that most of our engineering graduates lack innovation engineering. I studied Business Admin but I can lay my hands on anything engineering, mech, telecom, I can scatter and rearrange my car engine, repair a phone do simple website management, creative designs...

Any graduate who can not explore and develop auxiliary skills is by the way.

I am not trying to absolve any "half-baked graduate" o...just trying to let y'know that you would be a very nice interviewer.

Applicant: I am a Banking & Finance graduate.
You: What is a commercial bank? grin

Then you better make it easy for all your applicants, ask the Insurance graduate "what is premium?". tongue
Lol! cheesy cheesy cheesy

And after the interview, the applicant will so lay curse on me.. grin grin

You have a point, but OP is not totally wrong. As a graduate of Engineering/ Physics you ought to know the basics of science and technology, if as a graduate of elect. elect/Physics you can't identify live, neutral and earth wires/terminals, something must be wrong with you.

Tell them, something that is in some Physics textbooks used in secondary school.

3) You studied Mechanical Engineering yet you still take your car to the mechanic workshop to change common engine oil and other little things!

4) You studied Elect/Elect, yet you can't even change as simple as a lamp holder in your house! You are a half-baked graduate!!!


11. You are a half baked graduate if you think mechanical engineering studies involve how to change motor vehicle engine oil.

12. You are a half baked graduate if you think electrical engineering studies involve how to change lighting fittings.

I dont agree with you on this. Most of nigerian universities are not practically oriented. So the issue of not being able to hang and connect the fan by a elect elect graduate may not be the individual but a system problem. Nevertheless, I encourage graduates and undergraduates to engage in vocational training that will enhance their skills in their field of study. At least mechanical eng. and electrical eng. can benefit from this. But the worst is petroleum engrg, which does not have any means to vocationalize it...Lol. But seriously I pity a graduate who has laptop but yet pay biz centre to type his cv and those who cannot apply for job online. Though, with experience, you may be well knowledgeable with all these but still struggling to come out from unemployment. I conclude by advising that graduate and undergraduate should try their best to be well built but prayer should not be left in the equation so far as achieving success is concerned.
BrightEye:
I strongly agree with that no. 4....
I remember some years back, a graduate of elect\elect called me to his home, he needed me to complete the installation of a ceiling fan he bought, assembled, and hanged on the hook......he couldnt connect it to the power correctly. I was disappointed to see the way he was trying to connect it: he joined live and neutral of the fan chord together and inserted it into a terminal...... Even an office man knows that is a wrong connection.

NOTE : I was a freed apprentice of electrical works.

[quote author=Rapmoney post=39464265][/quote]

Most of what you say a plain rubbish... what you have said simply means you have not passed through a Nigerian university, or you are a first or second year student.

I am going to scrutinize each one of your points to show you how they fail woefully

Point Number:

1) PART OF SPEECH: If I ask you how many part of speech you know and use consciously, I bet it won't be more than 3, Noun, Pronoun and maybe verbs..... This is a very useless point, can you remember how to solve quadratic equations using Completing the Square problem, or calculate the distance and time between two points on the globe using Longitude and Latitude as ref? If you can't solve it without consulting a book or the internet, then you also are halved baked cos you have been doing maths since kindergarten

2) READING: I do not think there is no graduate that "can't" read more than two pages... If they find it stressful its a whole different thing, but to say they can't because of the level of education.. well, if at all it will apply to like 0.0000000000000000001% of the graduate population.

3) and 4) MECHANICAL ENGINEERING & ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING: This is plain stupid, the fact that you can't understand that number 3 and 4 belong to the same category and should be treated as one number is dumb of you, plus this point should not apply to only those two, it should go as far as the whole possible courses offered in the university. Your lack of understanding of what goes on in the Engineering faculty can be pardoned if you are not an Engineer. Engineering goes far beyond Fixing light bulbs or fixing your own car, what do you expect of an Mech Engineer who specialized in Thermodynamics or Air Conditioning (PS: for those who don't know Air conditioning does not imply just to that your home appliance), or an Electrical Engineer who specialized in Telecommunication or Computer, I studies Electrical and Specialized in Telecoms.

If you are to make that a point, you should talk about things that are really related to that persons course, like an Electrical Engineer not being to analyze and build a circuit or a Mechanical Engineer not being able to develop a prototype for an Engineer, things are related to the actual/specific thing they have studied, I am not saying that a Nigerian graduate should know all these, because in the University in Nigeria, nobody trains you that way, so you can't blame them.

This point applies to Computer Scientist who can't write a simple program, or medical doctors who can't perform surgery, these things take time, and it is after graduation that you are expected to develop the skills..

5) Inability to Teach Others Mtchewww, Don't you have lecturers that can't teach, do you think everybody was built to teach?

6) Confidence : Confidence is a whole different skills, it is not learnt in school, it is virtue of the way an individual is brought up, its psychology.. so no point here

7) Cant' Read and Write: This point is the same as number 2)

cool Can's User MS Word: I don't know why this is a point, but I can't argue with you on this, but trust me anybody is excused if they can't use MS Word, you think say na everybody get money like your father to afford a computer?

9) Discussing in Beer Parlours: Firstly I totally love beer parlours, secondly, I believe there are cultist who are first class graduates and lecturers seff, its low of them to keep on discussing of such things, but it does not mean they are half baked.

10) Watching Porn and Chatting with girls: I do not see how the Blackberry or Iphone strengthen this argument, so I removed them, about watching porn, well I can be the CEO of Shell and watch porn and also chat with random girls, nobody grows beyond chatting with new girls.
