INTRODUCTION 1.2.1 Brief History of the University A brief history of the University and the Faculty of Technology as contained in Obafemi Awolowo University. Ile-Ife, Nigeria Calendar, 2004-2006 and Faculty of Technology Handbook. 1981-83 respectively and the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering is given below. Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife is one of three Universities established in Nigeria between 1961 and 1962 as a result of the report submitted to the Federal Government in September, 1960, by a Commission it appointed in April 1959 under the Chairmanship of Sir Eric Ashby, Master of Clare College, Cambridge, to survey the needs of post-secondary and higher education in Nigeria over the next twenty years. The Government of Western Nigeria first announced in 1960 its intention to establish as soon as possible a University in Western Nigeria which would be of the highest standard. Its policy would be to open its doors to students from all parts of the Federation and of the World. The planning of the Obafemi Awolowo University was entrusted to two Committees. The one, a University Planning Committee comprising persons qualified to advice on the planning of a new University, and who in effect undertook the preparatory work connected with the establishment of the University pending the setting up of the Provisional Council of the University. The other, a University Parliamentary Committee, which would be advisory to the Minister of Education. On 8th June, 1961 the Law providing for the establishment of the Provisional Council of the university was formally inaugurated under the Chairmanship of Chief Rotimi Williams. On 11th June, 1970, an Edict known as the University of Ife Edict, 1970 was promulgated by the Government of the Western State to replace the Provisional Council Law of 8th June, 1961. This Edict has since been amended by the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife (Amended) Edict No. 11 of 1975 (Transitional Provisions) Decree No.23 of 1975. This new Decree effected a takeover of the Obafemi Awolowo University by the Federal Military Government and established a Provisional Council as an interim governing body of the University which shall subject to the general direction of the Head of the Federal Government control the policies and finances of the University and manage its affairs. This Provisional Council has since been replaced by a Governing Council. The site selected for the University was at Ile-Ife, a town about 80 kilometres northeast of Ibadan in the Oyo State. Ife is famous as the centre of an ancient civilization and home of the Museum which contains the renowned Ife heads. It was intended that temporary buildings should be put up on the site to enable teaching to commence in October 1962 while the permanent buildings were being planned and erected. But when the Federal Government transferred the Ibadan Branch of the Nigerian College of Arts, Science and Technology to the University, it was decided that it would be unnecessary to put up

temporary buildings at Ife and the University was temporarily located on the site of Ibadan Branch of the Nigerian College. Teaching began in October 1962 with an initial enrolment of 244 students. The teaching, administrative and technical staff, either transferred from the Nigerian College or newly recruited from abroad numbered about eighty. The University started with five Faculties - Agriculture, Arts, Economics and Social Studies (now Social Sciences), Law and Science. Six new faculties have since been added, namely the Faculty of Education (established on 1st October. 1967), the Faculty of Pharmacy (established on 1st October, 1969), the Faculties of Technology and Health Sciences (now College of Health Sciences) (both established on 1st October, 1970) Faculty of Administration (which replaces the former Institute of Administration with effect from 1st October l979) and Faculty of Environmental Design and Management (established on April 6, 1982). In 1992, the University established a collegiate system with five Colleges. The system did not function effectively and was abandoned after two years. However, the Postgraduate College and the College of Health sciences were retained. The College of Health Sciences now comprises of the Faculties of Basic Medical Sciences, Clinical Sciences and Dentistry. The Adeyemi College of Education located in Ondo and the Institute of Agricultural Research and Training in Ibadan were initially integral part of the University. Although the Adeyemi College was separated from the University in 1975, however, there is still a close relationship between the two institutions. The College offers degree programme of the University under a system that is closely monitored by University. The Institute of Agricultural Research and Training, Ibadan with a branch at Akure in Ondo State, used to be fully superintended by the University in 1991. However, the Akure branch and the College of Animal Science of the Institute continued to report to the Federal Government through the Director of the institute. In terms of funding, the Institute of Agricultural Research and Training now relates to the Federal Ministry of Agriculture while the University still has administrative responsibility for the Research and Administrative staff of the Institution. The Director and the Secretary of the institute are responsible to the University through the Vice-Chancellor and Registrar respectively. The Vice-Chancellor is the Chairman of the Institute’s Governing Board. The following other Institutes and major units exist in the University: The Natural History Museum The Institute of Ecology and Environmental Studies The Centre for Gender and Social Policy Studies The Centre for Industrial Research and Development The Institute of Public Health The Institute of Cultural Studies The African Institute for Science Policy and Innovation

The Computer Centre The Drug Research and Production Unit The Equipment maintenance and Development Centre The Central Technological Laboratory Workshop The Central Science Laboratory The Centre for Distance Learning Health Center, Hezekiah Oluwasanmi Library, Natural History Museum, etc Finally, some other agencies over which the University has no direct, or, in some cases limited control, have premises within the University. The Regional Centre for Training in Aerospace Surveys The National Centre for Technology management The Centre for Energy Research and Development The African Regional Centre for Space Science and Education in English Cooperative Information Network (COPINE) The student population rose steadily from 244 in 1962/63 to 28,758 at the end of the 2015/2016 session.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE FACULTY OF TECHNOLOGY

Out of the five faculties that were eventually established in July, 1962 by the University Provisional Council, only two were science based. They were the faculties of Science and Agriculture. It is pertinent to note that eight Faculties were approved by the Provisional Council in July, 1961. Engineering and Medicine were two of the three left to be established. The Faculty of Science started in Ibadan by offering degrees in five basic sciences: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Botany and Zoology. Faculty of Science finally moved to Ile-Ife campus in 1970. From 1966, significant development took place in the Faculty of Science with the creation of the Department of Geology. In Physics, the Electronics courses were incorporated and the name of the Department was changed to Physics and Applied Physics to accommodate this new development. The Department of Physics and Applied Physics later became the Department of Physics and Electronics. A similar development took place in Chemistry with the strengthening of Chemical Technology in the Department of Chemistry. It then became the Department of Chemistry and Applied Chemistry. Two Technologies based Departments therefore emerged. They were Electronics and Chemical Technology (renamed Chemical Engineering). Also, Statistics became developed in the Department of Mathematics and a Computer Centre was set up. The Departments of Agricultural Engineering and Food Science and Technology remained with the Faculty of Agriculture. The Faculty of Technology was established on 1st October, 1972 to cover the areas of technology neglected by other Nigerian Universities offering courses in field of engineering or technology. It’s establishment involved giving off the technological disciplines from the Faculties of Agriculture and Science in the earlier years and bringing them together under one umbrella. The affected disciplines were Agricultural Engineering (from where Mechanical and Civil Engineering Departments later emerged), Food Science and Technology, Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Chemical Technology (renamed Chemical Engineering), Computer Science and Estate Management. The creation of the Faculty was in fulfillment of part of the original vision of the founders of the University in assisting to provide training facilities for the professional manpower urgently needed by the country for the development of it’s agricultural, industrial and mineral resources. This position was clearly stated by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor H.A. Oluwasanmi, in his Convocation address to the University on 3rd July, 1971.

We have not created a Faculty of Technology merely because it will be a

fashionable addition to the list disciplines encompassed in an institution such as ours. In establishing this new Faculty, we have taken into account our society’s needs for rapid promotion of technology. Located as we are in a rural environment, we believe that the technologies which we develop in the University should be

closely linked to the solution of the problems of rural communities (ref 1: Address by the Vice-Chancellor to the Convocation of the University of Ife, July 3rd, 1971, p4.)

The Department of Agricultural Engineering was aimed at producing engineers to fashion out implements of cultivation to hasten the mechanization process of our farms and relieve the farmer of the drudgery associated with farming in Nigeria. Similarly, the programme of Food Science and Technology is aimed at creating facilities that will assist the nation in solving the problem of food preservation and processing. The same motivation accounted for the expansion of the Faculty with the addition of Civil and Mechanical Engineering Departments. The point is a fully developed Agricultural Engineering programme will require the competences of Civil and Mechanical Engineering in the installation of teaching, research and professional practice equipment. The postgraduate work in Agricultural Engineering will definitely require well-developed Civil and Mechanical Engineering Departments. The Departments of Civil and Mechanical Engineering became full-fledged departments during the 1980/81 session. In the same year, the Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (now Materials Science and Engineering) was established. It’s establishment was to cater for the progress in the rapid growth of the metallurgical and allied industries and particularly for the search for minerals in various parts of Nigeria. The Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, it’s activities was to aid the establishment of steel-dependent industries, such as automobile parts, industrial and agricultural machinery and domestic equipment. The new look Materials Science and Engineering is to focus on materials for nuclear, electronic and allied products now required by the Nigerian industries since the iron and steel industries did not take off. In 1974, the Technology Planning and Development Unit was established to conduct policy research on harnessing Science and Technology for Economic Development. The Unit is for postgraduate teaching and research. In 2011, the Unit took a different turn and it is now African Institute for Science Policy and Innovation. The University started a sub-department of Estate Management in the Department of Economics in October, 1972 but when the Faculty of Technology was created in 1972, the Department of Estate Management was made to form an integral part of the newly-created faculty. However, during the 1977/78 session, the scope of the Department was expanded with the introduction of Architecture and Building. Consequently, the Department changed it’s name to the Department of Environmental Planning, Design and Management. The next session, two more degree programmes were added. They are: Urban and Regional Planning and Quantity Surveying. On the Management retroactively taking effect from October, 1981. The University Council approved it as the 11th Faculty on the 27th February, 1982. The Faculty of Technology established in 1970 graduated 20 students in 1973 but registered 517 students in 1974 and by 1985, this number increased to 1,363. The enrollment during the 2010/2011 (current session) is 3,562 with a staff strength of 251 and all Nigerians. Three of the members of staff have been Vice-Chancellors before. They are Professor Fola Lasisi (Uyo), Professor M. O. Faborode (Obafemi Awolowo

University) and Professor M.T. Ige (Crawford) while Professor G.A. Makanjuola won the National Merit Award. The foundation Dean of the Faculty is Professor Howart (1971-1975) from the Department of Food Science and Technology (now Food Science and Engineering) and the first Nigerian Dean of the Faculty was Professor V.A. Williams (1975-1977) from the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering. The following have occupied this post at various times: Professor G.R. Howart 1971 to July 1975 Professor V.A. Williams August 1975 to July 1977 Professor G. A. Makanjuola August 1977 to July 1979 Professor S. A. Sanni August 1979 to July 1983 Professor S. B. Jaiyesimi August 1983 to July 1985 Professor A. A.

PHYSICAL FACILITIES Of the eleven Departments and Units in the Faculty, the following are yet to be housed in their permanent buildings: Electronic and Electrical Engineering, Technology Planning and Department Unit (now African Institute for Science Policy and Innovation). RESEARCH OUTPUTS A lot of machinery for post-harvest processing of Agricultural products e.g. cassava pealing, palm oil processing, farm planters and yam pounding machines have been designed and produced from the Faculty. Some electronic components like diodes, transistors and solar cells were produced from the Clean Room facility for the production of semiconductor devices in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering. From the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, in partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, USA and the Department of Physics, emerged the concept of ILabs. iLabs, sponsored by Carnegie Corporation of New York, provides access to laboratory experiments via the internet. This welcome development gives support to the teaching of science and engineering curriculum which requires laboratory experiments not catered for by the dwindling financial supports to the

universities. Obafemi Awolowo University iLabs is a hub for West Africa. Experiments are developed and shared with other partners such as, Makerere University, Kampala, Uganda, the University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Ghana Telecoms University, among others Nigerian Universities. The OpenCourseWare (OCW) of MIT is also shared. Renewable energy projects are interdisciplinary in nature and cuts across the Departments of Civil, Mechanical and Electronic and Electrical Engineering. Significant progress has been recorded in the software development. Notable among the software developed are e-portal for the University with ISIS for result compilation, the made in Nigeria Primary Healthcare Information System (MINPHIS) from the Information Systems Research Unit of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. The MINPHIS software package is made up of Patient Information System (PIS) and Laboratory Information System. The package is implemented in several Teaching Hospitals in Nigeria and it keeps patient records and generates various reports for health management and research purposes. From Food Science and Engineering are various canned products and the Food Science bread. Lately, there is serious work on the improvement of “Iyan Gbere” from bread fruit tree. The Materials Science and Engineering (in conjunction with Engineering Materials Development Institute (EMDI) boasts of a 100 kg capacity fuel-fired Rotary Furnace with a 100 kg capacity fuel-fired crucible for melting non-ferrous components. For quality control, facilities such as CNC Milling and Lathe machines and Metallurgical Microscopes with adequate chemicals are available. Precision components such as gears, couplings, pulleys, etc in addition to pepper grinding discs, channel gratings, man-hole covers and other industrial spare parts can be manufactured in the foundry. From the Hall of Fame Awards Ceremony, organized by the Faculty, in conjunction with its Alumni, emerged the Obafemi Awolowo University TechExcel Foundation (OTF). OTF with a well thought out Strategic plan and Feasibility study gave birth to the idea of the Knowledge Park launched in April 2011. A Knowledge Park comprises Science, Technology, Industry and other disciplines that can be researched and such research converted to profitable economic activity. One of such is the Law Retreat Centre included in the park. A Knowledge Park promotes technological innovation, foreign investments and rapid regional economic growth.

BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONIC & ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

The Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering was carved out of the then Department of Physics and Applied Physics. (The Applied Physics Section has now been replaced by Engineering Physics). The founding head of the Department was the late Professor Victor A. Williams.

There are four areas of specialization in the Department viz: Electrical Power Engineering, Communications, Control and Instrumentation, and Materials Science and Devices Technology. Undergraduate and postgraduate programmes are run in the four areas of specialization, awarding B.Sc., M.Sc., M.Phil. and Ph.D. degrees in all them. Incidentally, quite a number of the current teaching staff received their postgraduate degrees from the Department, indicating a high retention ratio. The first set of graduates, (in June, 1971) of a 4-year engineering course from the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering, University of Ife, (now Obafemi Awolowo University) was 26 in number. The set recorded four (4) First Class graduates, ten (10) Second Class Upper, seven (7) Second Class Lower, three (3) Third Class and two (2) in Pass division. Notable among this set are Professor L. O. Kehinde, a one-time Dean of the Faculty of Technology and former Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Administration) (who remains the longest-serving alumnus in the Department, having been employed as a Graduate Assistant in October 1, 1971), Associate Professor A.B. Borishade (a former Federal Minister of Education) and the Rt. Revd. Prof. A.D. Akinde, the Lord Bishop of the Cathedral of Saint Jude, Ebute-Metta and one of the founding fathers of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, OAU, Ile-Ife. Subsequent graduates of the Department now occupy positions of authority all over the world. Among them are Professor G.A. Adegboyega, a former Dean of the Faculty of Technology, OAU, Professor Tayo Akinwande, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA); Professor Kofi A. Makinwa (Delft University of Technology, Netherlands); Professor Philip Ogunbona (University of Wollongong, Australia); Tokunbo Ogunfunmi, Santa Clara University, USA; Earnest Ndukwe (former Executive Director of the Nigerian Communications Commission); Jide Adeniran (Mirics, UK); Olumide Akinsanmi (a Consultant in the UK); Succeeding General Managers of the National Control Centre, PHCN, Osogbo, from Engr. Steve Okitika (now Olumuyiwa) to the present one, Engr. Ndiagwalukwe, to mention some. The first Ph.D awarded by the Department was in January, 1988 to Mr. Oladipo Osasona, who is now a Professor as well as the current Head of Department. (A list of the graduates of the Department is on www.ife-electronics.com). The Department has had a very long and useful collaboration with the Ministry of Defence in the training of Nigerian Military Personnel since 1974, when the Nigerian Army Signal Officers started the Diploma Programme in Electronic and Electrical Engineering. By 1977/78 academic session, other Military Officers (such as from the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), the Nigerian Army: Armour, Artillery, Engineering and Intelligence) joined the programme. The Nigerian Navy (NN) came on board in 1983. The Diploma programme was upgraded to a B.Sc. Degree programme in 1979. The programme ended in 1999 when the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) was upgraded to degree-awarding institution by which time over 330 officers have been trained. However, the programme was

http://www.ife-electronics.com/

replaced with the Postgraduate Diploma (PGD) and Master of Technology (M.Tech) in Electronic and Telecommunication Engineering, in 2002. All these programmes have proved to be very successful in the training of middle and senior manpower for the Ministry of Defence in particular, and for the Federal Republic of Nigeria in general. Also, they have been more cost-effective, when compared to similar overseas training courses. Our graduates have included Chief of Defence Staff, Chief of Army Staff, Flag Officer Commanding, Major Generals, Air Vice Marshalls and Rear Admirals, to mention a few. The military project was not the only successful national project embarked upon by the Department. In the 1972/73 Session, a pilot project of Semiconductor Discrete Component Fabrication was embarked upon. The “Ife transistor” was the result of this venture. Ours was the first and only University in Nigeria that succeeded in fabricating diodes and transistors. The main project would have been a huge success if the Government had not changed its policy on funding of Nigerian Universities. The Department is also in the forefront of iLabs, a system whereby laboratory experiments can be carried out via the internet, therefore making it possible to share laboratory facilities with other universities across the globe. At present, there are remote experiments in dc and ac circuits, op. amps., robotics, motors, mechatronics, and communications experiments that can be performed by secondary schools and other universities. Since the first set of graduates passed out of the University in 1971, our products are all over the world doing exploits. We have professors in world-class universities in the United States of America, Europe and Australia. Even in Nigeria, our products are in the computer industry and IT world, oil companies and in the electronics and electrical industry, generally.
