Na today?

My brother studied education management and does not have any computer certification but gets jobs to develop apps where he earns nothing less than 200k every month.

Who BSc ehp?

Whoever put Uniben here wasn't fair enough.
Computer science in uniben is still FORTRAN and BASIC. Bullshit.

i wudnt advice anyone to study comp sci in a nigerian university itsa waste of time, curriculums are 30yrs behind
instead goto niit or aptech.

To be a good Computer Scientist, the knowledge of Mathematics is very important because without that you can't be a good programmer. Without Mathematics, you will be at sea with some programming languages like FORTRAN,ADA and even the common ones like Java, C, C+ etc still requires basic mathematics.

Mathematics is one of the building blocks of been a computer scientists, but I will tell you why most ppl will disagree, because they think, computer science only involves website designing, basic application development..., as a computer scientists one of things you should able to do is writting complex algorithm to solve complex problems, like routing, cryptography, data mining, Natural Language processing, facial recognition... which requires some math like set theory, geometry, abstract maths(groups and rings, number theory etc..)

FUTMINA?

Timekeeper:
A senior lecturer at the University of Ibadan identifies 12 universities that bets offer Computer Science.

Computer Science students (Jigpoly)
If Computer Science is the course you choose to study in the university, then you've got to choose the university that best offers the program.
Recently, Pulse informed admission seekers about institutions that best offer Law and Medicine in the country and many UTME candidates are taking advantage of the guide Pulse Student dishes out on the universities that best offer certain courses.

Unlike Law and Medicine, there is no professional body that rates the study of Computer Science in Nigerian Universities, but lecturers with years of experience in both field and lecture rooms can authoritatively recommend the best school to study this course for admission seekers.

Dr Roberts Charles, who is a Senior Lecturer of Computer Science at the University of Ibadan is one of such authorities.

The lecturer who has been teaching the course for 17 years at the premier University identified 12 universities that have proved to be very good at teaching the course.

In a chat with Pulse Students, Dr Roberts said he drew his conclusions based on his interactions with the graduates of the schools who came for master's program at the University of Ibadan.

Here are the Universities he recommends for admission seekers who want to study computer Science.
University of Ibadan

Federal University of Technology, Akure

Federal University of Technology, Minna

Obafemi Awolowo University, Ife

University of Calabar (UNICAL)

University of Benin, (UNIBEN)

Covenant University, Ota

Lagos State University, Ojo (LASU)

Kwara State University, (KWASU)

Ladoke Akintola University, Ogbomosho

Ekiti State University (EKSU)

University of Lagos, Akoka

Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

The lecturer however blamed incompetent lecturers in the universities for the half baked computer science graduates in the country.

"Most Computer Science students in Nigerian Universities today are not practical oriented and it is because they don't have lecturers that are very competent and that is a problem. When the lecturer is not competent, the students too wont be confident in themselves.''

. Mr man I don't agree with u EKSU has no good lectural in computer science no effective laboratory non of dem can write programming for it to run on a system na saddest dem get like doctor Mrs oyinloye but ask her to write programming and run it na zero b DAT

akashi01:
Did I just see Federal University of Technology Minna there?

Don't mislead people bro, computer science over there is basically Applied Mathematics with small computer packaging.


If you're planning on going there, ask yourself can you cope in Maths department.. if you can, good, then go ahead.

If you can't, please just find another course.

Social life can be boring but computer science department is very good in that school. Except you're the lazy type

Dohyn3:
I know LASU will be there.
That sch is just too good.

Did you actually mean that statement? I studied comp Sci there and know what I went through

The best university to study computer science in Nigeria is UNIVERSITY OF COMPUTER VILLAGE, OITGBA, IKEJA

Shittaakeem:


What is this one saying
You don't need mathematics to be good in programming.

Says who? You cannot survive as a programmer without a good maths background, except if you are a HTML Programmer even advance CSS requires maths, not to talk of complex algorithms...

I disagree with you,I have a friend that studied software engineering in abroad and did not offer any mathematics module at all.He is very good in programming languages.In abroad,if you want to study computer science,you will face it squarely.

computer is more like applied maths.

LASU product spotted! When some thing is too good that means it is bad.

We shouldn't mistake computer science for computer programming.

Computer science very nice course...., in my next generation.... I will also choose computer science as a course.,,, Computer science is just self employed business.....

Lucasiangrey:
We shouldn't mistake computer science for computer programming.

what are you talking?

Note: computer science have 3 main branches...

1. computer Programming
2. networking
3. Web technology...

So, as a computer science student.. kindly make one choice out of the 3 and be professional in it....


Computer science my best course ever...,

Really

Play with your future and choose uniben. Unless you are prepared to develop yourself personally, don't think you'll study CSC in any Nigerian school and become a pro.

I know but what's the point if all you learn is maths then just a slight touch of Computer science?

I'm telling you, studying computer science in most Nigerian Universities including FUT Minna is a serious waste of time.


Please don't misguide aspirants. I am also a victim of this online stats

Lucasiangrey:

I know but even at that it shouldn't be 80% maths

Your opinion

abujaArchitect:


You must be referring to 8-10yrs ago when it was a double honour course in FUTMx (i.e Maths-Computer)
Around 2011 a big faculty was built and believe you me FUTMx has one of the best computer science dept. in the country.

The lecturer's information is far more updated than yours

FOTRAN at this point in advancement is still updated right??

That's your opinion Sha..

olamil34:
Most of it is cram and pour

I studied marketing and I can code in four programming languages

The mistake alot of people make is to think computer science is all about programming,well it is not. You could actually in certain instances be a computer scientist and not program. There's a whole lot more to it, than a mere programmer will grasp. Your ability to code is four languages is just like a man saying he can work with a hoe,axe,cutlass and spade. With computer science you can go a step further a even create new tools.

hahaha. which university of calabar? remove unical abeg

Thank you jare, most of them do not even know what programming really is. They do not even know what it takes to programme all the games, scientific package, windows etc

Computer science my best course ever...,

Graphics and animination.....

Every one is taking computer as programming and they forget that computer science also have different branches over 7 branches and they kip mentioning programming....

I study computer science and informatics in FUO....believe me there is nothing u will achieve except the certificate...

Thinking of doing graphics and animination abroad for my masters

if they say you should study hard and pass you will say no,people who know whats up appreciate the work Dr Mrs. Oyinloye is doing. By their fruits we know them.

Pls I need subjects required for public admin... Can anyone help me

Alas! Uniuyo is not listed, then that list is not complete
