Ibharalu Thomas, PhD, mncs, mcpn is a lecturer in the Department of Computer Science, Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Ogun state, Nigeria. Dr.F. T. Ibharalu    graduated    with B. Sc. (Hons) in Industrial Mathematics from the University of Benin, Nigeria in 1988. He later proceeded to obtain a Post Graduate Diploma in Computer Sciences from 1990 to 1992 at the same University of Benin. He also obtained a Master degree in Computer Science in 1997 from the University of Lagos, Nigeria. He later obtained PhD in Computer Science from the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria, in 2012.

He had worked with Federal Civil Service (Federal Ministry of Education, Victoria Island) as System Analyst (1990-1999), Associate Staff (System Analyst/Programmer), Alphaplus Computer System, Lagos and Sagamu branches. He later joined the Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Agriculture, Abeokuta in April 1999 as an assistant lecturer in Computer Sciences. Computer Science is now a full fledge department in FUNNAB, where he remains a lecturer.
