The difference between a Polytechnic and a university:
Polytechnics are generally predetermined for engineering courses and are well-equipped for this. If you prefer engineering courses such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, electronics engineering, etc., your best bet should be polytechnics. Polytechnics are usually well-equipped for these courses in terms of practice. National Diploma in Polytechnic Graduates can start working with the National Diploma before proceeding to the HND (Higher National Diploma) level. Universities won't be able to do the same until they complete their four- or five-year courses. Polytechnics provide more practical knowledge than universities. At the National Diploma level, you go for the Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme and later IT, which gives you more practical exposure. University students only go for information technology, usually at the 300-level. Having enough practical knowledge encourages more Polytechnic graduates to start their own businesses or firms after completing their degree.
