WELCOME TO GEOLOGY DEPARTMENT

In the 2005/2006 academic year, the Department of Geology continued to teach its programme both at the graduate and undergraduate levels. Inadequate laboratory and lecture space continued to be our major constraints in handling the increasing number of undergraduate students. Other constraints included lack of field equipment to enhance training of students and inadequate computers for teaching and research. The Department entered into an agreement with the Geological Survey Department to avail their X-ray Fluorescence facility to the Department for teaching and research
