Is there any form of discrimination against polytechnic graduates?
Are colleges of education seen as less prestigious?
Do people tend to abandon their certificates from Polytechnics and Colleges of education to get a university degree?
Yes there is some differences between Polytechnic and University. Universities are broader in approach, and teach subjects with an emphasis on imparting basic knowledge with a lot of theoretical aspect with a little bit of projects work and lab assignments
afterwards they give degree certificatr & on the other hand, polytechnics are more practical in their approach, and take up smaller courses that are industry specific oriented and afterwards they give diploma certificate.
Dear Ademolawa,
Of course there are differences. Polytechnic education has its specializations and level of learning and reproduction. In the case of university education, the professional skills that are desired have a greater profile and greater application. Depending on these differences, there is no discrimination, but it does divide the functions that its graduates can perform. Regards
There use to be a vast difference here in Ghana, but in recent times the polytechnics have been turned in technical universities. but still their stuff components are still below par
