Welcome to the Faculty of Science
The Faculty of Science was established at the inception of the then University College of Rhodesia and Nyasaland in 1957 with only five departments.
The Faculty of Science is part of the University of Zimbabwe committed to training scientists for both national and international development. The programmes offered in the Faculty have had a long history of success. They have been needs-based with regard to national development and self sufficiency in national manpower requirements. These programmes have operated under tested regulations. It is not an exaggeration that the programmes have acquired international recognition. The MSc programmes that have been running have produced graduates for both the public and private sectors as well as academic staff for the new state universities. It is regrettable however that due to the critical staffing situation, some of the programmes have had to suspend enrolment of students. However, some MSc programmes, especially in those departments that had thriving link programmes, have acquired international recognition and attracted students from the southern African region. The Faculty is proud of its record in postgraduate training by research. In the past 10 years, the Faculty has produced 22 M. Phil and 47 D. Phil students, all of whom have been absorbed into various sectors locally, regionally and internationally.
