olamil34: Sir, is not about the syntax, or being able to write code in four languages, there is more to that, that is why most big tech companies still insist they need computer science graduates, programming is not all about the code, the ability for the code to be able to solve a particular problem within the shortest period of time is also consider,and also the amount of memory that code is utilizing Have you ever wondered, why big tech companies do white board interviews, ask questions relating to different algorithms and data structures instead of asking the individual to just code one demo site? Computer Science is more than what you guys think it is, it is a broad course. 1 Like |

I'm a computer science student, 200level, I can't really code, but I'm very good at graphics design and animation , should I. Continue in my field as a graphic designer or are you guys saying coding is the only way in COMPUTER SCIENCE, please I need your advice cos all u guys have been talking about is just programming, no one ever mentioned graphics... |

Vstuffs: I accept, you need computer scientist to build next greation technology, algorithm, micro chips, os, e.t.c. But most can be self taught. 1 Like |

sheykruz1:Coding is not the only way, but please try to learn at least one language and fully understand it as a computer science student, since you are into design and animation, you can further your knowledge, by learning how to do different designs for games, sites, mobile apps, desktop apps (UI/UX) etc |

This course majorly has to do with self development |
Re: 12 Universities To Choose If From You Want To Study Computer Science by Vstuffs(m): 10:38am On Jan 02, 2018 |
olamil34:Yes, they can be self taught, but there are many concepts that the self taught individual will need to learn, that may take a while to understand, at the end most of them go back to learning via CS50 or any Computer Science Course Online. It is really not easy, even for us the Computer Science students |

Do not study computer science in Nigerian university! You will end up frustrated! Go and study any other course, then have external computer learning programs outside the school. With that you will be very good in programming, and use it to solve problem in your area of study! For example, you studied mass communication, and you have acquired computer/programming skills, you will then put it into practice in solving problems in mass communication! |

akisoft:true but in deeper sense...logic is the building block of CS....I'm in 300L and we stopped doing math courses since 200L 1st semester... just because a person is a math guru doesn't mean he will be great at computing, I've seen this firsthand although you need a good level of math knowledge (B or C grade level) and you good to go. I checked Harvard curriculum and no math course....they focus on algorithms... check out CS50 by professor David Malan 1 Like |

Shittaakeem: Lol. Bro, you still have much to do if you want to be a programmer. Do you know that computer understands no language except maths.... All these diff programming language translate ur written code to binary code(maths) for computer to understand. Have you ever thought of why they said maths is the father of technology. U need to research more bro. Jahbless |

kode12: The thing is that programming is the bedrock of anything you are doing on computer, though its not compulsory to learn it. But its good for someone to have it at the back of his mind that its a programmer that built the app he is using to do his work. So everything is still under programming. |

When it comes to computer science, Covenant is the best. They have received various grants in computer science and bioinformatics. But for public varsities, I will vouch for University of Ibadan. In all, as a student, you have to develop yourself. The key courses which hold computer science are algorithm and data structures which are not taught well in Nigeria. It goes beyond programming or writting codes. It's your ability to determine the running time and space complexity of a program. Well, Convenant Uni is the best. 2 Likes |

patriotsam: Programming doesn't make you a computer scientist. There are lot to it. We computer scientist build tools and analyse programs or data. Anybody can be a programmer. Even market women could enroll for programming classes at aptech. What would differentiate them from computer scientist is that, do they know how the program runs? the time, space? |

Timekeeper:d problem is nt only incompetent lecturers but equipment.4 example in dev.countries they wat u called academic laptops ther nt d conventional advance hp dell imac laptop. Dis once 4 computer student ie they ar device 2 teach u hw 2 type, print etc.bill gate was trying 2 do 1 4 africa one tym but failed due 2 high cost wich mak d laptop expensive 2 african students.dt wat i read in an online article.so i think d solutn is 2 mak very cheap academic laptop,printers wit low spec in china mayb outsource wit nigeria .4our secondary sch student 4 a start den u.n may b brought in partnership wit google 2 handle d issue of internet wifi whereby countries govt.including nigeria govt wil pay 4 d internet wifi.nd also govts wil sign wit u.n 2 put such academic laptops in custom duty free goods. y am sayin dis is because u can nt giv d students home assignment in computer sci. Wich computer dey use.anotha is wen u use sch computer lab if a student spoil a computer keyword or cpu disk tray is d sch. Dt pay 4 d repair nd u knw smal computer repair can cost 5k 2 do.dis can lead d principal 2 blame d computer teacher in his mgt of d lab.but den sum pple may say let d student incure d cost of repair in their sch fees/tuition dt a very gud suggestn but dt leave d issue of home assignment,student preparing 4 test/exam.i think dis 3 issue is d reasn y computer science is taught theoritical. |

jumaian: U said "we computer scientist build tools and analyze PROGRAMS".... May I ask what will you use to build the tools, is it not by PROGRAMMING. "anybody can be a programmer".. So far someone is a programmer, he's already a computer scientist. Though I agree computer science is wide but you cannot say a programmer is not a computer scientist 1 Like |

What all these schools you mention will teach is old Programming language like Fortron,Kobol. You can't learn any modern programming language in them. God to these private university and learn relevant computer programs. |

ITS GOOD BUT PROGRAMING IS VERY VAST..... WITH MANY LANGUAGES....IF U FOCUS ON JAVA SOME INDUSTRY WILL SAY ITS C++ OR C# LANGUAGE WHILE SOME STILL LIKES FORTRAN, Q-BASICS AND PYTHON MY REASON IS PROGRAMMING IS VAST AND MY HEAD CANNOT CARRY IT.... #include <iostream> using namespace std; x=3; y=5; z=x+y; ..............etc guru90: |

Plus u can't just be there and be learning applied mathematics, u gass good in practical or else you would really be missing out. If you don't have the drive, u can't survive. |
