Osun State Polytechnic Iree

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND

Osun State Polytechnic, Iree was established as a Satellite Campus of the Polytechnic, Ibadan in 1981. It became a full-fledged Institution in October, 1992 when the law establishing the Institution was signed by the First Executive Governor of the State, Otunba Isiaka Adetunji Adeleke. The Polytechnic was established to produce middle level man-power, particularly in the fields of Science, Engineering, Environmental Studies, Information and Communication Technology, Management and Financial Studies. This Staff Handbook is published with the aim of bringing together and presenting in a convenient form, information about the various aspects of establishments, procedures and regulations of the Polytechnic. The Handbook also includes various regulations governing academic, administrative financial and technical planning in the Institution, thus enabling every staff member to know what is expected of him, not only at departmental, but also at the Faculty and Institutional level. The Institution initially commenced with eight (08) programmes at Pre-ND, ND and HND levels but today, the National Board for Technical Education has accredited over thirty (30) programmes. While National Commission for college of Education has accredited programmes.
