THE FACULTY OF
ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
Message From the Dean
The Faculty of Environmental Science was Established in 2002 though it only became operational in July 2022. During these years, the Faculty of Applied Science surrogated the two Departments in Existence under the Dormant Faculty, i.e., the Department of Environmental Science and Health and the Department of Forest Resources and Wildlife Management.
The activation of the Faculty in 2022 gave birth to new departments, and the Faculty now has four departments, namely a) Environmental Health, b) Environmental Science, c) Geospatial Sciences, and d) Forestry Resources and Wildlife Management. The Faculty aims to offer programs and services that would culminate in improving the management of natural resources while reducing human and animal conflict, thus resulting in comprehensive health management through careful consideration of environmental factors.
