You can covert your HND tO BSC in a UK university with 12 to 18 months online course. You don't have to travel out and the certificate will get you a good job in Nigeria.

you see your life? did I made mention that I took the courses during my hnd programme
they are cousres taken for ND programme.. you guys should fuccking stop being bias and face reality ok?
ure even contradicting urself, ah dnt even no wat ure saying again, cuz ah wonder wen u want uni guys to undergo those courses
Re: Hnd Is Equivalent To A Bsc by Walexz02(m): 9:13pm On Jan 06, 2014
Walexsammy: , bro I was taught all those courses in my 200Level....these are general course all Engineering student must undergo in the 2nd year (Note: am talking strictly abt my own school) in 4th year ure already getting into ur departmental courses...except for few borrowed courses
You see what you posted first ?
Walexsammy: ure even contradicting urself, ah dnt even no wat ure saying again, cuz ah wonder wen u want uni guys to undergo those courses
You are the one who don't know what you are saying since you can't understand that ND1 and ND2 is equivalent to 100 and 200level
It is crystal clear that some guys here are just bias..Nigerians sha, they will know the truth but will prefer otherwise.

and he is not saying the truth! I just checked those courses and they looked like specialization courses for Agric Engineering! If i hear say someone did it in 200 level. 200level includes courses in 'General Engineering' picked from various departments and offered by every Engineering student in 200level - that's what you guys did in ND1.....perhaps. It's in 300l that the students go different ways and concentrate on their departments - And that's what that guy is doing in ND2.

All uni graduates on thread, sorry for busting your bubbles. I'm just a person who doesn't try to peddle lies just to support what's mine. I support how things should be done! It doesn't matter if I'm even on the other side.

Re: Hnd Is Equivalent To A Bsc by tosyne2much(m): 2:04am On Jul 06, 2014
zebra: A lot of people today do not want polytechnic education not because it's not good, but because of the discrimination against it by university graduates. The main question is why are the university graduates always afraid of the polytechnic graduates? Where are they always quick to say that poly HND is not equivalent to a Degree, even when it was meant to be so? Why are poly HND graduates who are given the opportunity to compete with Degree holders always meet expectations of doing well? Why is it that Nigerian HND holders who are doing Masters programs in some foreign countries with their Nigerian Bsc holders are also doing well and coping with the programs?

rckdude:

Your post is just too long and quite tiresome. But you have this strong passion for what you believe in. That's good I'd advice you turn that passion into actions. If more HND holders worked their ways to the zenith of the corporate pyramid, then they should be able to end this prejudice. Because I think the only reason we have it like this is because employers of labour are B.sc holders. So stop the whining and go all out.
If I was in the position to employ, HND or B.sc would not even come up, its what you can deliver. But sorry I have not assumed such position and power. Its up to you guys.
May God reward all your efforts and labour.

@ Everybody because we are in a confused nation where things are being done with ambiguity and i have never seen any blue print by Nigeria Government to say which is better by virtue of placement in Govt establishment HND & Bsc start with GL 08 ST 02 please ask the confussionists what is the difference and some even argued that when it comes to practical HND is better so which one is superior then? When it comes to emolument those that attended health related institutions are well paid than most master holders in other fields. If I may ask a farmer (crop production scientist) who plants to feed the health-workers didn't he or she deserved to be paid well because no food no life so all depends on the attention or recognition, it was not like that before but when Gowon was the head of state he started the policy to favor his wife like our president's wife who is a PS in her state how can we justify all these.

NOT ONLY WES my friend is in one of the best university in Moscow he used his HND for Master programme and he was giving scholarship for Phd programme during the course of his master programme his HND certificate was evaluated to Russian Degree it read Btech and trust Russia they will never use WES or US standard this is another sources
It is high time we stopped fooling ourselves with this mentality

I learnt that Bsc, *Beng* and *Btech* are types of degree an engineer is awarded upon graduation. Now this is my question: what is the difference b/w Btech and Beng? Which is more valuable?

Pls i'll like to get a detailed answer. Plsssss!

In nigeria, Beng is more valued than Btech, but basically Btech is ahead of Beng even in the workforce. If we have two graduates who graduate thesame year one having Btech and the other Beng, the former will be a step ahead of the later( i meant a level ahead) when employed as civil servants. I prefar Btech cool

Don't blame him alone. Many graduates in Nigeria do not know what WES stands for or what they do.
Re: Hnd Is Equivalent To A Bsc by zebra(m): 7:56pm On Jan 01, 2015
Look at Jelani Aliyu who designs cars for General Motors in the US. He left the university to study in the polytechnic because the university curriculum was too theoretical and doesn't meet his needs. He wanted something practical and opted for polytechnic education. Today Nigerian polytechnic products are honored and respected by Americans and the rest of the world, while Nigerians look down at them.

imagine how university engineering graduates look down at their counterparts from the polytechnics. They claim they are the designers while the poly guys only implement their designs, and yet none of them has designed anything economically meaningful. Here we have Jelani Aliyu, a polytechnic trained graduate designing for one of the world's leading automobile companies. Now, who is decieving Nigerians?
