Nigerian Police Force. Oboy!!! What exactly you want to do for them beats me. Abi na survelance department you wan dey? Anyways, I'm the last person to be giving advice on this kind of thing. Maybe Ajanlekoko et al can help you

Umm, that's me scratching my head. What's NIM?

S'up with software engineering. I was thinking of doing something to help myself and it sounded attractive to me, given the rate at which we are going digital. What d'ya all think?

cool

@lekside44.
I think we all misunderstand you in this thread. Most of your posts are factual. I look forward to your contributions.

hmm

@Oyb
You've really been around the block. I was never really a fan of auto cad. I used to think it was just for other engineering fields. But seeing your work has given me a re think. Thanks for the sharing. I think i speak for the house.

I just finished my exams. I've not visited this thread for some time now. @ajanlekoko I'm always inspired with your words. Your willingness to share your experience is truly amazing. Thanks for making this thread a success.

oboy. Na don turn this thread to fut inquiry. I am writing exams now. I'll find out 4 all of u as soon as am through. With 188, you have a good chance. you just need to ace the post ume exams

@lekside 44
I think everybody on this thread will agree with you that the Nigerian educational system is in shambles, but haba! How can EE not be relevant?
PS: No allow your child open TV o! Ever heard of residual magnetism. Enough to kill a man

@ajanlekoko
NSE is so full of crap. They came to my school offering student membership with an annual due of over 1k. I wonder what a student stands to gain. Probably another one of the revenue generation tactics you talked about.

@netotse
I admire your resolve for power. Most people are not fans of power but your morale is unaffected i hope. My very best wishes.

That depends on the level you're opting for. 200 or 300. Which course. Are you coming in with Ijmb or diploma?

, Still waiting

Let me start the introductions. I'm a student of engineering. 300L. That's all for now. Atleast until i get some response

Hey! Are We Just Too Busy Hunting For Scarce Commodity aka Babes Or Struggling With Our CGPA's. Futminna students, take a chill pill and let's interact some.

Afrihub is just a project that made a select few millionaires and left us with insufficient and half dead systems. My phone is 10 times faster than afrihub,
The 60 hours they issue is just a facade. Most student dont even use up to 5 hours. Since this semester begun I've never gone their and found a free system. They are always occupied. How do they expect just a little above 50 systems to serve the multitude of students. Afrihub is a failed project.
PS, I've started a thread on fut minna students. Care to join in?

@1engr
You really have a lot going on for yourself and a bright future awaits you.
@lekside44
Did you even see the name of the thread before posting in it?

@poster
I agree totally with you that there is a huge gap btw what is taught in schools and what is required. Are you a HR personel?

Hey everybody! What do you guys think about going abroad for masters. I was thinking of going under the PTDF scholarship. But I was going through their lists of courses and i didn't really find much under electrical engr. Let the house know what you think. Adiose

@netotse
how's it hanging at shiroro? Did u ask after the guy oyb talked about?

Biological engineering. Oh boy! I can only help with electrical engr. View my thread. There's a lot there

@oyb
wow! that's a whole lot of experience with power. The stuff about the CTs exploding is scary.

I still believe power is an attractive field. Just like accountants are needed almost everywhere, power engrs are also needed. It's just not as sexy as telecoms.

@venturesc
Elect engr is not about fixing radios. Though i admit that an elect student should know about trouble shooting. But this is 9ja my guy. Only those who seek for that Kind of knowledge outside the school environment get it.
@netotse
I think you're the only person on this thread that loves power. If i may ask the house, what is it that scares people off power?

@ajanlekoko
The fact that elect engr is lucrative was one of the motivating factors. But i've always been amazed as to how much can be achieved with very little components. Back then my dad wanted me study medicine. I've not decided what field i'd like to go into but there's still time. I'll probably decide next year during my IT.

@jaybee
what's it like being an information engr. What do u guys do?

@ oyb
i must say ur last reply was funny. Did your set have problems with a fat dude running the labs?

This feud between oyb and becomrrich is getting out of hand. Lets focus on the topic. We should start ignoring irrelevant comments.

@becomrrich
Why are you so pessimistic about everything?

@oyb
It seems ajanlekoko has some competition now. I'm glad you're here. From what i read, you're specialised in electrical networks and power. One thing that still bothers me though. I wonder if any of the things we study in school will be relevant in the workplace. Everybody is going into ICT certifications and i wonder which of them is best of elect/comp students.

@ajanlekoko
i must say that u've become a full fledged career doctor. it seems you never run out of advice.

@ ajanle. You're really the kind of person i had in mind when i started this thread. Your bank of experience can change lives. Keep up the good work. To my fellow nairalanders with 2.2 grades and below: I personally do not believe in the hiring rule most companies adopt. I believe companies that ask for nothing less than 2.1 are limiting themselves. My elder brother graduated with a 2.2 and he is better than most of the 2.1 and 1 holders i've known. Am not saying a 2.1 is worthless cuz if you think of it, how else can companies screen the multitude of job seekers. I am presently in first class and i know a few first class holders. They all strike me as very boring people who neglect a lot of extra curricular activities that aid personality development. So all you need is a chance to prove to people what you are made of, just like our humble career doctor did. Lol
