Difference Btw Poly. And Uni.:my Views by akinwunmi(m): 11:58pm On Apr 05, 2007
To Y'all

I am graduate of Computer Science of a Nigerian Polytechnic Laspotech.I worked in a mortgage bank as an ass. systems admin for over 2yrs(as an IT student).I had to stop cos i got admission into a Nig. Uni.

After registratn all stuffs.I was beaming with joy tht i am now an Undergraduate.With the mind set of a Polytechnic Student i had the thinking tht studying COmputer Science in a Uni is the Zing thing,but i was f.k wrong.I armed myself wiv books on CISCO,A+,N+, and some other computer science stuffs.

Guys those manuals and book are now lying dusty in my room @ HOME.Did you say WHY? well @ 100L we are doing Physics,Chemistry,Biology and 200L students are doing only one Comp. Course.


lemme stop here so i can hear your views then i will tell you more aiight.

Bottom LINE UNIVERSITIES SHOULD BE CONVERTED TO POLYTECHNICS

more to come

The difference is the Technical nature of the polytechnic curriculum which introduces students to the real or should i say Technical aspect of the course. The university curriculum is designed in such a way that students become more theoritical in their chosen fields. We expect university graduates in computer science to develop algorithms while the polytechnic graduates will code the algorithms for users to use in solving their problems.

We need both!! Theory must go with practicals; and practicals too must go with theory.
