until an HND holder can apply for Masters without doing PGD before I will believe abolition of any dichotomy. if the abolition is mainly on FG and states jobs then I think it should be called waiver because I see no abolition in that 4 Likes |

MrMash:Yes, especially when it comes to technical and management education. I chose to study a management course in a polytechnic even though I wrote a UME as advised by my people and passed on merit. That one year industrial training alone is a plus. 1 Like |

kittykollinxx:have also taken note of university graduate writing skills too... the system presently in this country doesn't require a divide, because everybody can work anywhere whether in his field or not, not to talk of as a technologist or a scientist... funny enough they're areas of specialization and doesn't mean one is higher than the other in position. 1 Like |

This type of decision comes, when uneducated people are in power. The entry requirements for Poly's were always lower than for universities. The lecturers were always of lower qualifications than those of unis. Most poly graduates can hardly speak English sef. It is like saying the children of the concubines/ side chick and those of the real wife should have equal rights within the family. We will not take it. ? ?? 1 Like

Don't let anyone deceive you, if you have the chance, pls go for university degrees instead of HND! The dichotomy will always be there. Many parastatals will never employ someone with HND cert over University degree cert. Besides these abovementioned, when trying to go abroad to study many developed countries don't even recognize HND cert. My 2 cents. 3 Likes |

ProsperChild: They should do well by removing the dichotomy that exists between the rich and the poor, politicians and the rest of us. How can a politician's one month salary be more than ones entire life earning in the useless country? As for university and poly graduates, it's only in government and some few industries discriminates. And to say university graduates are superior in knowledge to their counterparts in the poly is a very big lie. Have worked with all of them and come to a conclusion that inbuilt knowledge and personal commitment makes one better. 2 Likes |

MrMash:what is your problem,is even B tech n Bsc exactly the same?, personally I will prefer the HND to scrapped altogether n all the polytechnics to be converted to various colleges with authority to award first degrees only in various spheres of learning to solve the dichotomy problem finally. 1 Like |

Eaugusta:Tell them again... Most people make comments based on the knowledge available to them, they don't go further to at the least do a little research on what obtains as regards to a discuss that's beyond their knowledge... Just like you, I have been in the 4walls of both a Polytechnic up to HND level and a University up to BSc level, the university curriculum is a watered down version of whats obtained in the HND curriculum... the dichotomy ish I believe was born out of lack of understanding of the difference between a technologist and a Scientist... they are worlds apart but are meant to complement each other not rivals or one is higher than the other, funny enough a technologist (HND holder) can function effectively in both specializations, while an ordinary (BSc Holder) can only function as a scientist... it's proven even in my place of work, it pops up day in day out. 2 Likes |

Idaytesj29: To my own understanding I think Polytechnic is better because they apply both theory and practical, in Nigeria that's what you need to succeed rather than just theory which is the foundation of all universities. 1 Like |

kittykollinxx:so will there be productivity with theories without practice?,the reality is both are complementary n the dichotomy is needless but for egocentric fellows like you,if fluency in English is the true measure of competency then those that study English language as a course should be considered as the most competent. 3 Likes |

Both are kings in their lane, if theory is dependent on practicals to actualize it goals, so why under rate d practical knowledge n vise versa, its jst so pathetic we concentrate on irrelevancies rather than to create a platform where both can come together, translate n transform their abilities to develop the country n beyond.. Technologically we are far behind, economically we are struggling, May God open our inner eyes. 1 Like 1 Share |

demoBaba: You really don't need one to educate you on it. Probably you are in need of an argument. The same reason government established government technical colleges(called Craft Centres), Commercial Secondary Schools and the regular secondary school.

Various candidates from different background were taught Accounting from the scratch to finish in 3 days . We had an exam 2 days later, guess what ! The Engineers schooled all of us including a Chartered Accountant and a lady that had first class in accounting . These guys scored 98% .

ProsperChild: THE ISSUE OF DICHOTOMY BETWEEN POLYTECHNIC AND UNIVERSITY HAD BEEN OVER FLOGGED FOR TOO LONG. The worst part of it being the fact that it has been POLITICIZED. The federal government should make polytechnic run Bachelor Degree such as BTECH. With the BTECH a poly graduate can just go for masters degree without the intermediary of running PGD. |
