tashan: Job prospects in Nigeria, without being a kill joy, there isn't a whole lot of design work done here. In essence, you're left with support and installation these complex electro-mechanical devices. If you push the envelope to include the globe, then by all means go for it becomes very lucrative.........bright engineers are always in demand. Make sure you have the aptitude for programming and be adept in mathematics. BTW, i worked on super wide format industrial digital printing machines for years until last month.

your contribution is highly appreciated Thanks, but no thanks.

Rhino.5dm:
Forget about mechatronics in Nigeria and particularly at ATBU cos they are not in any position of add value to your life.



I know ATBU like back of my hand and I know all lecturers in mechanical department which I presume should be the ones handling that course.

Engr. Aje Tokan, Prof. Bello Adisa, Prof. Gerry Egbo, Engr. Bawa Mohammed, Engr. Sintali, Prof. Jatua, Engr. Habou Dandakuta, Bala Garga with those new graduate assistance can't add any values to your life. Many among them can't even solve heat equations.

so, my friend where do you intend to work with your mechatronics after being thought by bunch of illiterates wielding paper certificates? Do they have any new facility in place to handle such courses?

In the future, all I see is an innocent guy tied down hopelessly with first generational lathe machines shouting mechatronics!!!


Architecture? well, you just have to make a choice between the devil and the deep blue see. I suggest you give it a shot. But you have to forget about all those useless drawing board and set squares and quickly get your hands dirty on packages like autocad, Revit architecture, chief architecture, archicad, sweet home, Autodesk architecture, 3D max, Cinema 4D, Maya etc. . . . If any of the above scares you, then stick to your building technology and learn how to use packages.

By the way, I have successfully trained secondary school dropouts to become mid level architects within 6 months. . .don't waste your six years doing what you can learn better within six months. my 2 cents

Sir, You just made my day !!! i mean this is exactly what i need: a down to earth arguement especially with ATBU as a case study. I shall carry on with my Building. I would like to get in touch with you to see if i can also benefit from your six-month Archi programme alongside my studies.

^^ since na only you comment have this. . .

There was a boy whose name contained 7 letters (Chinedu).
He spent 7 years in Secondary School because he repeated twice in 1977. He sat for his S.S.C.E. for which he entered 7 subjects. Before the exams, he usually read from 7a.m to 7 p.m.
When his results came out, he had d7 in all the 7 subjects. He promptly fainted and was rushed to the 7th Day Adventist Hospital where he was admitted into ward 7 and assigned the 7th bed. He remained unconscious for 7 days.
While on admission at the Hospital, his mother bought a car, which was numbered OG 7777GGG. When he saw the car plate number, he fainted again making it the 7th time he had fainted.
On July 7, 7 years ago, he had fainted at 7 o’clock when he heard that the lady he impregnated gave birth to a baby with 7 fingers on each hand.
He finally died some 7 hours ago due to the 7 th injection he refused to take.
Dedicated to ma boss Lagusta! Who commented by 11:47!!

^^Thanks a lot guys!!
But i still need info partaining the career prospects of these two courses in Nigeria in the near future, preferrably from someone that studied either of the two courses or just anyone who knows about them, please Nl'ders i need to make a decision before Jamb closes registration...

shakaz: Mechatronics ? Have you done your research on how the course would look like, guessing from the name that it has to do with both Electronics and mechanical engineering mixture..If that the case it's a nice option.

yeah, i've done the research
here's part of it

Mechatronics is the combination of Mechanical engineering, Electronic engineering, Computer engineering, Control engineering, andSystems Design engineering to create useful products. However due to development of light technology such as fiberoptics, optical engineering and fiber optics are being integrated into the course and are replacingsome electronic courses.
A mechatronics engineer unites the principles of mechanics, electronics, and computing to generate asimpler, more economical and reliable system. Mechatronics is centered on mechanics, electronics, computing, control engineering, molecular engineering (from nanochemistry and biology) and optical engineering which, combined, make possible the generation of simpler, more economical, reliable and versatile systems

my problem now is : is it worth leaving building for?

ehis00: na lie joor...it doesnt follow

na which kind follow you want mek e follow?

NO SPELLING ERROR

hcl_acid: what is this boko harem guy jisting

1.It's 'haram' not 'harem'. Even with the countless number of times it was spelt on t.v and NL you still can't get it right.
2. It's 'gisting' not 'jisting'. Simple and basic English. Let me ask you two questions . . .



YOU GO SKUL?









ARE YOU A LEARNER??

O.k

O.k

They still crack me up!

.

Here is my story:
I wrote the 2012/2013 Jamb Examination in which i applied for Architecture in ATBU Bauchi state, but when the admission list came out i was given BUILDING TECHNOLOGY to study[Mind you i have all the required credentials; a relatively high Jamb score(225 is not bad for a year like 2012 is it? where mass failure was recorded) and all required subjects in Waec]. In order not to stay at home i registered for and am presently studying Building Technology but i have not been feeling fulfilled knowing that i am not studying a course that is up to my academic standing. Now i came about this new course 'Mechatronics Engineering', i made some research on it and found out that its a new course and only a few universities offer it in Nigeria and my school happens to be one of them. I need advice partaining both courses so that with it i can be able to arrive at a decision of whether to write jamb this year and apply Mechatronics or to just continue with the Building? Please Reasonable advice are expected. Thanks in anticipation!

ATBU abi poly?

the former.

sesytrice: I served in Gombe in 2011/2012. First, when I was posted there,I needed the help of map to know the state was in the north eastern part of Nigeria

I had a great service year,the town is beautiful, the people are nice and the tangale girls are sweet . It called the 'jewel in the savannah' but i call it my 2nd home town. I love visiting the town and I still do.

Gov. Danjuma goje transformed the state,and Gov. Dankwabo (tolban) is trying to build on his legacies. This is one state i know PDP is working. I'm looking forward to my next visit there.

what exactly do you mean by the bolded. All these corpers coming to deflower innocent girls.

@topic.
You can check my location i've lived in Gombe for 8years but i am currently in Bauchi for educational pursuit so non of you can tell the story better than me.
I will be back.

It's about time. . . . .

Not quite sure why that is the case on your end, but i will look into it. The site is running perfectly on all access points i have tried, and different ISPs.

Don't worry bro, you've visited the site once (thanks).
You will visit again in small doses, and as it expands- you'll be fully addicted. I promise!

then make sure it's ready before publisizing it. Every topic i clicked it says 'You are looking for a topic that doesn't exist'
