1.1     BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

In any serious country, state, organization, or individual, education is a vital sector that cannot be taken lightly, and as a result, an individual, organization, or government will go to great lengths to ensure that her citizens receive a high-quality educational experience. Education is a vital sector that cannot be taken lightly by any serious country (Adibe, 2001). One of the mechanisms by which this provision is made is via the establishment of computer science as a programme of study at polytechnics. Computer science is the study of the design and use of computer systems. It is divided into two categories: theoretical and applied. One of the goals of the computer science department is to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary to recognize problems that can best be handled by using a computer and to create and execute efficient, cost-effective, and innovative solutions. A formal academic field such as computer science is divided into three domains: theory and abstraction, as well as design and implementation.

The mandatory courses in the curriculum provide students with a solid foundation in both the software and hardware components of computers, as well as the mathematics and physics that serve as the cornerstone for the field. The electives offered in the latter years enable students to specialize in a specific field of computer science by studying it in more depth. The department's courses and programs are constantly evolving to meet the needs of students seeking professional employment in the field of computer science.

It is the student's obligation to comprehend and comply with all polytechnic and departmental regulations. These requirements are described in detail below, and the polytechnic has gone a long way to ensure that those individuals (computer operators) are retained in a variety of capacities:

The acquisition of formal education in computer science, as well as full registration as members of the Nigerian Computer Society are two goals.

Iii To limit the number of non-professionals working in the sector.

A computer is an electronic device that is capable of receiving, sorting, and retrieving information at incredible speeds. When used effectively, computers can assist teachers in teaching computer science students visually in all computer courses.
