About the Department

Our History

Department of Physics, Electronics and Earth Sciences is one the foundation departments in the College on Natural and Applied Sciences that the University started with on January 14th, 2008 when it started academic activities. The Department currently runs three programs which include Physics with Electronics; Electronics and Computer Systems and Electronics and Communication with a duration of four years of eight semesters. Since its inception, the Department has graduated twelve (12) sets of students in the B.Sc. Physics with Electronics degree program.

 

Philosophy

Modern electronic devices that are making our lives connected, safe cleaner and easier such as could not reach their highest potential without the right combination of modern electronic hardware designs and software technical know-how. Thus, all programs run by the Department are designed to train and equip graduates of the program with the requisite skills and knowledge of modern electronics design, fabrication and software development.

Mission

Our mission is to train students for leadership positions in technology-driven organizations within and outside Nigeria. We intend to provide students with facilities for the acquisition of sound knowledge of the major areas of physics, analog electronics, digital electronics, micro-systems and information processing, among others.

Vision

To produce socially responsible graduates conscious of the critical and highly influential nature of their calling for national development.
