DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS The Department of Physics is one of the foundation departments of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. From September, 1973, it prepared students for the direct entry to the University of Ibadan of which the present University was a Campus. By 1979 the Department produced its first batch of graduates in Physics and in 1983 the first batch of Postgraduate students passed out.
LOCATION OF PHYSICAL FACILITIES
The Department has 4 blocks of laboratories and an Atmospheric Physics observatory at the Bauchi Road Campus. The prefabricated structures were originally equipped for the 100 and 200 level practical work. One of them is on loan to the Department of Remedial Studies. The first floor of the storey building by the side of A1 accommodates 100 and 200 level laboratories, staff offices, toilets, staff common room and a lecture room for about 50 students (Room 201) reserved for 300 level lectures mainly. The Physics Laboratory III is equipped for 300 and 400 level practical work. The Postgraduate Common Room is located there. A Seminar room capable of seating 40 students in that block is reserved for 400 level lectures and Department seminars. In addition to the offices attached to the Laboratories, the following offices are available to the Department:
Natural Sciences Admin. Complex – Rooms 30, 31, 32 and Rooms 50, 51, 52, 54, 55, 56, 57 in the former Social Sciences Block.
The Physics store is located opposite the University Primary School, it houses spare laboratory equipment in addition to those equipment awaiting repairs.
Philosophy, Goals and Objectives Admission Requirements Relevance of Programme Grading Methods Award of Degree Programme content Presented below are the courses offered in the Department. The availability of some of the courses listed under electives depends on the staffing situation in the Department. The courses are codified with the letters PHY followed by a three-digit code. The first digit in the course code represents the level of study in a four-year degree programme i.e 1,2,3 & 4 for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th years of study respectively.
