Dean's Foreword

The College of Health Sciences is committed to the training of Health Care Delivery personnel to meet the health needs of the people of Zimbabwe. Training is geared towards primary health care with emphasis on a preventive rather curative approach.

The College of Health Sciences, formerly the Medical School, was established in 2000.

First established in 1963 under the auspices of the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom, the College of Health Sciences has undergone significant growth and expansion. 

It is the leading training institution in Zimbabwe for the following health professionals: medical doctors, dentists, pharmacists, medical laboratory scientists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, radiologists, nurses, specialist postgraduates and the provision of training and continuing health education needs for all health professionals.  Student enrolment continued to rise from the first 26 undergraduates in 1963, to the present 1600 undergraduates and 316 postgraduate students
