The College of Pure and Applied Sciences (COPAS) builds up from the Faculty of Science which was founded in 1989. The core business of Faculty of Science was to facilitate other faculties. Accordingly, it was a Faculty meant to service others. Since then, Faculty of Science offered degree programmes leading to Bachelor of Science, Master of Science and Doctoral degrees in Science. Students enrolled in a variety of short courses related to Science. Many other courses have been added after the year 2000. Starting with 67 students in 1989, the Faculty's roll has grown steadily to serve over 15,000 students within the University. The College of Pure and Applied Sciences will continue the theme of Academia and reconstitute its departments into organized teaching and research-based schools namely; School of Biological Sciences (SBS), School of Mathematics & Physical Sciences (SMPS) and the School of Computing and Information Technology (SCIT). This new structure reaffirms the commitment of the College to research-led higher learning. Excellence in fundamental sciences; Microbiology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Statistics, Plant Sciences and Animal Sciences are intrinsic in COPAS. This places COPAS as the University's defining College.
