Dean’s Welcome Message<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thank you for visiting the home page of the Faculty of Natural and Applied Sciences (FNAS). I am delighted to welcome you to FNAS, a nascent faculty which seeks to provide cutting-edge teaching, research and community service to our students in a friendly and conducive environment. I invite you to browse our website to see our strengths and advantages. They are too numerous to catalogue here, but I would like to note that they include state-of \u2013the-art laboratories, experienced academic staff with strong local and international affiliations, modern classrooms fitted with multimedia facilities and complemented by virtual and physical libraries.
\nThe faculty is seeking preeminence in energy, environmental and climatic studies as well as strength in the traditional sciences; and a growing range of entrepreneurial programmes. The faculty has three departments and offers the following undergraduate degree programmes: Microbiology, Biochemistry, Mathematics and Computer Science. We plan to establish undergraduate programmes in several other courses of great impact for self actualization.<\/p>\n

A strong feature of our programmes is the availability of online courses designed to make the learning materials available and accessible for students. The Faculty of Applied and Natural Science is well placed to make a difference in an ever-changing global society with an exponentially increasing dependence on technology. The faculty has produced its first pioneer graduates.
\nConsistent with the university moto, we think differently and foster that in our students.
\nI encourage you to expect great things from them and us and the wider community at large. Please don\u2019t hesitate to contact us with your questions and comments.
\nThank you for visiting our web page.<\/p>\n
