This article is designed for students who wish to study Computer Science under the Faculty of Science at Osun State Polytechnic (OSPOLY) Higher National Diploma (HND).
Confirm that Computer Science is still listed at OSPOLY before you register for JAMB. The programme runs to Higher National Diploma level, and the last line of the credit list adds two compulsory subjects.
Osun State Polytechnic, Iree, also known as OSPOLY, is a tertiary learning institution in Iree, Osun State, Nigeria. The Polytechnic was formerly a satellite campus of The Polytechnic, Ibadan.
It became autonomous on 12 October 1992 when the Governor of Osun State, Alhaji, Isiaka Adeleke, signed the law establishing the institution alongside The Osun State College of Technology located at Esa-Oke in Osun State.
Osun State Polytechnic Iree also has Daily Part-Time Program (DPT) which is located at the Koko campus.
To study Computer Science, candidates must meet the following requirements.
O’Level Subject Combination
The O’level subject combination and requirements needed to study Computer Science;
You require;
- Mathematics,
- Basic Science and
- three other subjects are chosen from the following: Economics,
- Geography,
- Government/History,
- Further Mathematics,
- Physics,
- Chemistry,
- Biology/Agricultural Science.
- English Language,
- Typewriting,
- Credit passes in English Language and Physics are compulsory
Mathematics and a basic science subject open the list, with three more drawn from the group below. The closing line then makes English Language and Physics compulsory as well.
That accounts for four of the five credits, leaving one place among Economics, Geography, Government or History, Further Mathematics, Chemistry, Biology, Agricultural Science and Typewriting.
Physics is the condition most often missed, because it sits at the foot of the list rather than with the named subjects at the top.
JAMB Subject Combination
In UTME, please note that the English Language is Compulsory for this course. Therefore, the three (3) other JAMB UTME subject combinations needed to study Computer Science under the Faculty of Sciences at OSPOLY include;
- Mathematics and any two of
- Geography,
- Physics,
- Economics or
- Chemistry
The JAMB combination is shorter. Mathematics is fixed beside the compulsory English Language, and two papers come from Geography, Physics, Economics and Chemistry.
Direct Entry Requirements
These are the conditions you need to fulfill to gain Direct Entry admission to study Computer Science if you don’t intend to use UTME.
