FUTA Launches Flexible B.Sc. Computer Science Program Through Open and Distance Learning Centre

The Federal University of Technology, Akure (FUTA), has opened applications for its much-anticipated B.Sc. Computer Science program through its Open and Distance Learning Centre (ODLC) for the 2024/2025 academic session. This innovative program offers a flexible learning model, providing a life-changing opportunity for individuals seeking a degree in Computer Science from Nigeria’s top-ranked University of Technology.

FUTA is welcoming applications for 100-level entry, as well as direct entry admissions into 200-level for qualified candidates. To qualify for direct entry, applicants must possess two A’Level credit passes in Mathematics, Physics, or Chemistry, or an upper credit pass in National Diploma (ND) in Computer Science from recognized institutions, in addition to fulfilling the O'Level requirements.

The program offers a highly affordable tuition fee and provides access to world-class laboratories and computing facilities at FUTA. Graduates of the program will receive the same certification as those in traditional programs and will be eligible for mobilization into the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) if they meet the age requirement of under 30 upon completion.

This blended learning approach leverages cutting-edge technology, breaking down barriers related to distance, UTME scores, and age. Aspiring candidates are encouraged to apply online at the FUTA ODLC portal, where the application form is now available.
