people always claim that degree is better than HND everywhere but I have also heard some people saying that HND in computer science is better than a degree in computer science because polytechnics are good practical wise and someone with HND in the field will be chosen over the person with degree when it comes to employment stuff. now I want people opinion in this, which is better? degree or HND in computer science and why

IF YOU WANNA BE A HOT CAKE PROFESSIONAL WHO SABI HOW STUFF WORKS PRACTICALLY, ITS HND BUT IF YOU JUST WANT BSC PAPER IN OTHER TO BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR JOBS N MEET SPECIFICATION DEMANDS, THEN GO FOR BSC.....


IN A NUT-SHELL BSC IS THEORY, HND IS PRACTICAL

but which is in higher demand

Op don't be deceived... Computer Science in either B.SC or HND is just paper now... The real deal is the skills you acquire as an IT professional

Get an IT skills

in other words you are saying school doesn't matter hmmm worst advice ever

Please go for the degree and acquire practical IT skills along the way. These days, most companies require a Bsc before you can be called for a test. Hnd is almost useless in Nigeria. A word is enough for the wise.
