Apparently, most universities in Nigeria aren't worth the stress of aquiring a B.sc, B.tech or B.eng from. However, some of these schools have beamed rays of hope that maybe someday, we may compete favourably with the rest of the world as regards technology. These schools include:

1. University of Lagos

2. Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife

3. University of Nigeria, Nnsuka

4. University of Ibadan, Ibadan

5. Covenant University, Ota

6. Federal University of Technology, Akure

7. University of Benin, Benin

8. Federal University of Technology, Owerri

9. Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria

10. University of Ilorin, Ilorin

Feel free to object constructively.

What is the need of studying engineering in Nigerian universities when they will visit PTI to see practical machines after many years of theory. Why don't they get to PTI study your course graduate and get work? No wonder some employees prefer PTI ND to masters degree in order to get promotion

finest0007:


So why was the lagoon the only thing your fish brain advertised initially

And I am here fooling myself thinking you have a brain.

zinc deficient nitwit!

mgbadike81:
no university in Nigeria is worth studying computer science or information technology in it worth more of more resources demanding courses like engineering.

I think the future is brighter in some institutions that others.

bobjack:
Brother i am 100% with you. No school is fit to conduct any computer science program in Nigeria. Can you imagine lecturers writing codes on blackboards. Am so sick of this shit.

cool down and do whatever is necessary to collect the certificate, you're already better than most computer science students by realising what's wrong with your education.

Naijacost22:
You actually put Covenant University that just started engineering 3 years ago and still has no Masters or PHD in engineering. I have a feeling you graduated from Covenant university and that would explain your dumb choice of putting Covenant university on this list.

I believe the prospect of engineering at Covenant University is encouraging and may take over in years to come due to proper funding and researches being carried out.

Statsocial:


Lol what are you saying When any of those schools can top in just one research topic globally then they should come back here and brag. For your information Covenant is the number one University in Renewable energy(wind), Corrosion and Carbon steel in the world. Go ask Elsevier
What has your public universities got to offer?

TheVictorious pls don't mind them jare. I would give it to Covenant and Abuad most of these public Universities are just all about nonsense theories the rest na just name.

Of course I'm even shocked that ABUAD is not there. These guys must think that its all about the years that a school have been in existence. Years are nothing in the long rung, as the world is fast changing and people are fast coming up with new innovations in everything. That's why Harvard is fast dropping in the ranking. In fact, most of what is still making some old schools reckoned with in rankings is reputation.

12inches1:
Lol. With their 19th century syllabus. It's when I finished my M. S in Engineering in U. S that I realized that studying engineering in Nigeria leaves much to be expected. And where are the industries to even employ the engineers. Many people who study engineering in Nigeria end up in the banks and corporate world nowadays because engineering don't pay well in Naija except oil and gas. Who engineering help. Even to build ordinary road or sky scrapper Na oyinbos dey do am. And they hoard knowledge die. Engineering is about experience and exposure so the oyinbos know to hoard their experience to stay relevant otherwise all the things they are doing an average smart Nigerian trained engineer can do it.

Let me disagree a bit with you. The fundamentals of engineering are hinged on principles.You begin to wonder why several Postgraduates students from this part of the world are doing well in UK/US Varsities.
If your knowledge is premised on what you are only taught in class and not by expanding your horizon by solving problems, then the ingenuity is lacking as a trained Engr.
I work with an indigenous Civil Engineering firm,and we have done several standard projects without the input of expatriates. I have many friends who are also doing well too. Pls,the industry is large enough to be exploited. Let's stop ridiculing the system.

muller101:
U mean engineering theories. I attended a technical college where University students come over for their industrial training. Most of them mumu die

Mushroom universities are all over but if u've met mumus among them, they are definitely not from the aforementioned institutions.

writerights:


I think the future is brighter in some institutions that others.

not at all, how many computer science students actually writes their of project software even though the said projects areas too simplistic?

muller101:
who test run am na. Michael Schumacher?

LOL. I meant I saw the lie

writerights:


That covenant university boy? He would be here soon to convince everyone on how CU is the university to beat and how it would take over from MIT in 5 years from now.

Wouldn't you be happy if it did?

Lool who is that guy, the guy must know facts.

I wouldn't say much on that cos you exaggerated, but as far as Nigeria is concerned; Covenant is a school to beat. In fact, majority of you know this but its just hard to admit.

Let me add a quick one: Very soon it's only aa school of ABUAD that you would be able to mention when you're talking about CU in Nigeria.

moscobabs:
Yabatech and Ibadan poly are better in Engineering than all these so called Universities

Jettison ignorance and embrace knowledge dear, go around and ask products of the two institutions who are privileged to attend universities the difference. U'd learnt a lot more by so doing.

..Where's My School oo FUPRE?? First Petroleum University In Africa N' Sixth In The World

What is a FUPRE please?

finest0007:


I'm actually aspiring to be in Unilag this month after my sojourn in UNIBEN but if this is all that you can praise Unilag for; a bloody lagoon then I won't even apply to Unilag, if I didn't know better

Lool, you can see how our young people adjudge university in Nigeria. Especially those of them that come here to rant oba awon university. They don't know how myopic they are.

OmoDavido:


And I am here fooling myself thinking you have a brain.

zinc deficient nitwit!

I hope you feel good about yourself now.

Everybody has right to their opinion, but the truth remains, It s when the graduates from those schools get to the job market that we can determine which school is really among the top

Shaw007:
all of these schools are useless.

List the useful schools in your country.

Cyberrex:
and yet[b] futminna has the best chemical engineering department in west Africa[/b]

linus op

By what rating, standard or criteria sir. Any proof of where you got them compared with every other university in West Africa?

Temilistic22:
Who made that stupid ranking?
Why is UI, the first and the best, on no 4 instead of no 1
Smh

Nothing spectacular has been experienced from the faculty of engineering, university of Ibadan. U may list some to clear my doubt.

TheVictorious:

Its baffling sometimes. And majority of them are in the system & should know how it works, how undeveloped most of our unis are. Been in UNIBEN for long enough to tell any aspirant of its pros and cons, definitely won't use something so negligible like a lagoon to justify how awesome my school is

muller101:
bro I am an engineering graduate as well after going through auto repairs and working on steam engines for power generation I came to realize that most engineering graduates are really missing a lot

If you went to university you would know practical is not important anyone can be train to do that

OLUWOLEYINKA:
Your list is wrong. Where is federal university of technology Minna, federal university of technology yola, federal university of technology owerri.....

They shouldn't be on the list because they are technology schools, that would be an unfair assessment of the quantity of the faculty in every school.

directonpc:
Benue state university

Say watin oga?

XXLDICK:
Add Unizik (Nnamdi Azikiwe University)

Their engineering department made a bus, a bike, an F1 race car among many other things

F1 race car which LUIS HAMILTON used to win his 4th championship?

There are no useful schools in this country, all of them are the same, with corrupt systems that don't work, and designed to waste your time

I rep UNIBEN

muller101:

Engineers are more of brain work than handson. I guess you are the mumu in this case.

All these nairaland list sef.

OmoDavido:


Baba shift lemme see road.

If you want to really learn engineering come to Unilag. And have you heard about "Prof Mowete" ... no? Please google search that name to see for yourself.!

I just browsed about the man; saw his innovation on news publications but can't find his profile on Unilag website or on google scholar, or anywhere. Very low researchgate citation score; "a promising academic that will do better in a better learning enviroment".

You Forget About MAUTECH

writerights:


I don't know how many universities webometric or 4ICU visit before making their lists of over 10, 000 institutions. When you find out, do let me know.

But bro, these databases give elaborate description of their ranking parameters, inclusion and exclusion criteria and even shortcoming of their methodologies

no wonder the country is like this. Most of them can't get hired by engineering firms.
