Renowned for its commitment to technical and vocational education, Kwara State Polytechnic, Ilorin stands tall amongst institutions that have set the bar high for academic excellence. With the admission season for the 2023/2024 session around the corner, it’s essential for every aspirant to be well-acquainted with the benchmarks set by the institution.
A Glimpse into the Polytechnic’s Genesis
A brainchild of Col. David Bamigboye, the then Military Governor of Kwara State, the Polytechnic sprouted as an idea during the unveiling of a four-year development plan in 1971. The following year, the Kwara State Edict no. 4 laid the cornerstone for its foundation, which has since evolved through various legislative amendments.
The institution’s vision, enshrined in statutes, has always been clear: to spearhead research, training, and the development of techniques across diverse disciplines – from arts, languages, sciences, and engineering to management and many more.
