The Department was carved out from the former Department of Science Laboratory Technology in 1998 to train students in the field of Physics and Electronics. Beside teaching, the department has an outstanding reputation in research and development within and outside Yaba College of Technology. The knowledge and skills imbibed by diplomats of programmes offered by this department make the enough to discharge their duties creditably well as asserted to by employers’ ratings.
These achievements of the department have so far proved the strength and competence of effective knowledge delivery through teaching and research which are the direct results of the devotion to duty of its well-behaved staff members and cooperation of colleagues from other departments.
