RECTOR’S WELCOME MESSAGE
The world is in constant flux, and the needs assessment of our economy shows a lack of a practical, knowledge-oriented workforce. Governments, industries, and other establishments demand a practical-oriented workforce in all fields of human endeavour.
The Bayelsa State Polytechnic (BYSPOLY) Establishment Law 2014 proffers the solution. By its mandate, the Institution is to provide full-time or part-time courses of instruction and training in technology, applied sciences, commerce and management, and in other fields of applied learning relevant to the industrial development of the State and Nigeria in the area of industrial and agricultural production and distribution and for research in the development and adaptation of techniques as the Institution may from time to time determine.
With an impact-driven mindset, BYSPOLY is designed to inculcate in our students/graduates the spirit of tolerance of divergent shades of opinion as they interact with a global mindset. This is intended to keep our envisioned goal: “An educated person is a citizen of the whole world.” This encourages the preservation and development of human values and respect for fellow human beings, irrespective of class, creed and tribe. Overall, BYSPOLY is poised to instil in her students the Light and Skills that would enhance Self-Reliance.
Students of this Citadel of Learning must take full advantage/responsibility of the facilities in the Institution. When a student is unsure or clear about any issue of concern, such as the grading system, writing and re-writing of examinations, or marking and re-marking of scripts, the students are expected to approach the appropriate Department or personnel for clarification. Never in your pursuit of knowledge in this community must you be involved in any vices that will jeopardize your chances of being a self-reliant graduate, which is the future BYSPOLY craves.
Finally, every citizen has rights, privileges, and responsibilities in any known community, and the Polytechnic Community is no different. Our community is to guide the opportunities in occupations requiring information and skills in science, technology and other related sectors.
The desire to acquire education with proper knowledge is a herculean task which requires great sacrifice. As students, you are our partners in progress in our determination to make history in the growth of BYSPOLY.
Welcome onboard.
