Faculty of Engineering and geosciences

About Us

The Faculty Engineering & Geosciences (formerly Faculty of Mining & Mineral Processing Engineering until 2019) was established in August 2015 to contribute to the industrialisation of Zimbabwe by providing requisite research and training in the pivotal arena of local value addition and beneficiation of Zimbabwe’s mineral resources.
The Faculty greatly values partnerships in research and development with local and international entities and the government to advance the sustainable exploitation and utilisation of Zimbabwe’s mineral and other resources for the country’s maximum equitable socio-economic benefit. For example, the Faculty staff are engaged in consultancies with some mining houses and secondments of staff to the industry are being organised.
Deliberate inculcation of entrepreneurial fortitude coupled with business incubation facilities to support student enterprises, now core to MSU training philosophy, is mainstreamed in Faculty programs, as supported by the newly established incubation hub. Additional partnerships are being sought to provide requisite infrastructure and equipment for our programmes in order to help effectively address the national critical skills shortages in engineering and science.
