Guy for u to do masters, u most have to do Post graduate Diploma to qualify you. So try find a job and also apply for your PGD.

on the contrary, a degree in industrial mathematics is a lot better than a degree in pure computer science. so your excuse for graduating with a 3rd is lame. well, you can get a job with 3rd in mathematics but its hard as people with 1st, 2.1 and 2.2 compete for the same jobs, you stand a better chance if u have got connection. yes u can register for Msc but after successfully completing a pg diploma.

First and foremost 3rd class is not the end of your career, in fact it can be an added toxin to push you succeed.

First you need identify a career path that interests you, studying computer science does not guarantee a job,Professionalism must come into play,

As a graduate since you have interest in computer science, You need to go for professional courses e.g Network Admin,CCNA,ORACLE,SQLSERVER and so on

The rate at which you can get a job with any of this is still a little higher than an ordinary Bsc,You employer would ask you what you can do!!!!!

The path to a Masters degree with a 3rd class you need do a post graduate depending on the course you want to study....wish you the best

Yes you can get a job with third class. You know how naija be.
second you can do Masters but its quite difficult on schools that will accept that. there are some schools that want 2.1 while some are lower. There is no harm in trying, there are school that will accept you for masters abroad. I would suggest you do some professional course to back up your 3rd class and try schools abroad. one will answer you.

My friend jst understand tht ur 3rd does not determine ur achievement in life. I made a 3rd class like u also bt work in a very big office now. My friend made a 1st class in Computer Engineering and we both do same job. When we had an interview for an internal vacancy i was chosen despite having a 3rd class.

Even with all our BSC my other colleague is having OND and we are considered for same level with same monthly pay.

With my 3rd class after my NYSC i did nt sit at home for 3months before getting a job. With God all things are possible. Am an IT professional and by God's grace am comfortable.

All the best.

OP, I made a 3rd class almost 30 years ago from Uniben, now I employ graduates. As others have said there are many ways to overcome the challenge;
1. Decide on a career path, investigate what it takes to develope in your chosen career, for instance if you choose to be software developer go ahead and take the relevant professional qualifications, you want be an accountant do ICAN, web designer do the necessary and so on and so forth, very few 'professions' rely on first degrees.

2. Seek employment in the SME sector, don't rely on banks or telecoms. Transport companies, hotels, trading companies, small and medium scale manufactures, etc these businesses need articulate sharp minded graduates, not necessarily what you have on paper but most graduates in Nigeria never look at such companies because they feel the starting pay is too small, most fail to realise the experience they learn from the real world is invaluable. I know someone who started as a manager in a local hotel, now he is a top manager a 5 star hotel in Lagos after about 7 years experience, he started with OND.

3. Do your masters, if you can raise 3 million go to the UK or Canada and do a 12 month masters degree, UK and Canadian universities will not require you to do PGD if you are able to demonstrate a level academic ability. With a UK or Canada masters nobody will bother you about your first degree
