Elect/Elect....5years

Comp. SC.....4years


Presently , jobs are generally limited in Nigeria, as such skills in your area of study matters slot , and in most varsities in Nigeria , studying comp science doesn't really mean u will really understand the main applicantions in various areas... U will need to go for many self sponsored training to groom yourself , else , u would only be seen as a graduate of comp science but computer science wouldn't be seen in u....


Elect/Elect is the only course in engineering in Nigeria today, that u will study and have a better knowledge of what u studied , unlike other engnring courses...there many option in elect/elect, which includes : Power, Electronics, TeleCom, CONTROL, .... And my advice for u , is that since u like the both courses, I will advice u to go for ELECT/ELECT , and option for control if the need be, so that u can be a guru in both Comp science and Elect/Elect, despite your uni knowledge on comp.science, after school maybe from during your NYSC, u can starts running various programmes in computer science, tho it's expensive as some may cost up to 500 - 600k , but with that , u would be more skilled than those who studied comp science in the varsity only and your fellows in Elect/Elect....sip it...u may not value this because it's free...

go for computer science because engineering is just a waste of time in Nigeria

They all require solid knowledge in Mathematics and Physics.
