The Science Faculty

The Faculty of Science.

Foreword

The University of Goroka’s Faculty of Science is the largest and is a multi-disciplinary Faculty. The faculty comprises of 10 academic teacher education programs. These academic programs include Maths and Computing, Science Education, Agricultural Education, Health Teaching, Health Education, Technical Education, Secretarial and Business Studies, Design and Technology, Home Economics Education and Physical Education and the recently introduced Teacher Education degree program in Agricultural Education. Students enrolled in the Faculty are admitted into the three departments where they specialise in content. Offering of postgraduate programs in the various disciplines are a major consideration in the next few years.

Administratively, the Faculty consists of four (4) academic Departments and one center. The administrative Department arrangement of diverse sections are a marriage of convenience rather than a natural accommodation of sections based on subject rationale. This marriage of convenience we hope will be put rest if our planned restructure takes effect soon.

The Faculty is committed to its aim of producing quality science teachers for the PNG education system.

The Faculty of Science officers and their contact address are shown in the respective department pages. Please address all official communications to each of the respective officer.
