Abstract

It is believed that Polytechnic Education provides manpower for technological development of any nation. There are no complaints from the industries as to expertise of the Polytechnic graduates that their services are no longer required. Meanwhile, Universities are to teach research and expand knowledge for the development and progress of mankind. Polytechnics are not inferior to Universities as they do not perform similar functions but their services and functions complement each other for the development of the nation. Therefore, this paper examines the role of Polytechnics toward the achievement of National Development and industrialization of the country. The paper further examines the notion “that Graduates of Polytechnics are second fiddle to their University counterparts.” Finally, the paper comes up with a number of useful recommendations.
