Home Our Story

From the modest beginning as a promoter of continuing education in the early 1990s, Ibadan City Polytechnic, Ibadan has grown to become one of the foremost polytechnics in Nigeria today. Ibadan City Polytechnic was officially commissioned on the 8th of December, 2015 by the Executive Governor of Oyo State Senator Abiola Ajimobi. Prior to this, the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), having reviewed the requisite documents, granted full approval and formal recognition of Ibadan City Polytechnic as a full-fledged polytechnic in Nigeria on the 20th of May, 2015.

We offer students the unique opportunity to integrate practical learning with traditional theory. The practical personnel and empowering lifelong education Ibadan City Polytechnic provides translate into successful avenues to employment for our students. The foundational premise of Ibadan City Polytechnic is to create a cutting-edge institution where everything is theoretically impossible until it is done practically. We focus on group learning and by every measure, Ibadan City Polytechnic stands tall among leading institutions of learning, research, and innovation.

The clearest indications of these are our consistent high rating by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and other international educational platforms who consider us to be a top-rated institution that offers courses across various fields. Furthermore, the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) is equally proud of our graduates while performing their mandatory one (1) year service based on their service performances.

We offer lots of student support; academic, financial, career and personal counselling as well as free hostel accommodation and free education for persons with disabilities. Our courses are fully accredited nationally and recognized internationally. Interestingly, our motivated and passionate lecturers have extensive experience in their fields with robust professional acumen.
