Sports & Recreation Services
The Sports and Recreation Department is a unit within the Division of Student Affairs that has the broad overall responsibility of providing sporting and recreational opportunities and activities which contribute to the health, wellness and personal development of the students.
We encourage you to enjoy your time and experience at NUST by participating in the various sports codes that the University offers through the Sports Department. Our Section provides members of the University community with opportunities to participate in a range of sporting activities at the level they choose.
