The Polytechnic, Ibadan

by Nigerian Information Directory on February 9, 2010 · 2 comments

in Polytechnics

The history of the The Polytechnic dates back to 1969 when the international working party was set up by the then western state Government to advise her on the establishment of a polytechnic.

The working party recommended, among other things the establishment of a polytechnic in the western state whose general objective should be to produce technicians who will make an important contribution to the social and economic development of the Country and the Western State in particular. The Western State Government, accepted the recommendation; and The Polytechnic, Ibadan was established under the provisions of a principal Edict cited as The Polytechnic, Ibadan Edict 1970 and under the subsequent provisions of:

Polytechnic, Ibadan (Amendment) Edict 1971

Polytechnic, Ibadan (Amendment and consequential provisions) Edict 1971.

Polytechnic, Ibadan (Amendment) No.2 Edict, 1971.

Polytechnic, Ibadan (Amendment) Edict 1972 and

Polytechnic, Ibadan (Amendment) Edict 1977

By its establishment, The Polytechnic, Ibadan became a successor of the erstwhile Technical College, Ibadan which was founded in 1960, the year of Nigeria’s independence to provide for students’ training and development of techniques in applied science, environmental science, engineering and commerce as well as in other spheres of learning. The Polytechnic has been producing majorly middle level manpower that has been making valuable contributions to the social and economic development of the country.

The Polytechnic also offer a wide range of specialized short courses not only for the purpose of improving the vocational competence of technical and commercial workers, but also to provide an opportunity for presenting the most recent advances in knowledge and in techniques to specialist groups. It also provide opportunities for creative development and research related to the needs of teaching and industry and the business community, particularly in its service area.

In 1975/76 session, the polytechnic adopted the faculty system of structuring the academic departments hither to run, solely on department basis.

The conception was to make for easier work co-ordination and management. At present, there are five faculties namely: Engineering, Science, Environmental Studies, Financial and Management Studies and Business and Communication Studies.

By the amendment to the principal Edict of The Polytechnic which came into effect on 17th March, 1987, four Satellite Campuses of the Polytechnic were created. They took off during 1981/82 session and were sited at Eruwa, Saki, Iree and Esa-Oke. Each of the campuses is headed by a Director who is responsible to the Rector for the Administration and Discipline of the campus. However, with the creation of Osun State, the Campus at Iree and Esa-Oke have become the property of Osun State Government and are today known as Osun State Polytechnic Iree and Osun State College of Technology Esa-Oke.

The Student enrolment of the Institution has continued to grow. At present, there are about 15,000students in the Polytechnic, both at the main and the two Satellite Campuses.
