Welcome Address

Welcome to the Department of Physics, Electronics and Earth Sciences of the College of Natural and Applied Sciences, Fountain University Osogbo. Our Department is run by well-seasoned academics, technical and non-teaching staff. The Department has a well-furnished, equipped laboratory and workshop for teaching and research.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT

The Department of Physics, Electronics and Earth Sciences commenced operation on 14th January 2008 with Eight (8) students and currently runs Bachelor of Science (B.Sc) programmes in:

Physics
Physics with Electronics

At inception, the Department was headed by Dr M. K. Fasasi (Now a Professor), who was on one-year sabbatical leave from Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.

The Programmes run by the Department enjoy the National Universities Commission (NUC) FULL ACCREDITATION STATUS and have graduated several students. The Department has also recently submitted applications to the National Universities Commission (NUC) to run two (2) new Programmes, which are:

Electronics and Computer systems
Electronics and Communication
