BUIST introduce social science

PALAPYE: Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) will soon introduce the Humanities and Social sciences courses; this was confirmed by Department of Mathematics and Statistics Professor, Alphonse Amey.

Amey affirmed that when presenting John Cooke (College of Sciences Dean) introductory remarks at the University’s Library Auditorium during the Land Degradation Index (LDI) Mapping stakeholders’ workshop last week. He said the department of humanities and social sciences will be soon introduced because of its significance.

“BIUST is a college of Sciences and Engineering therefore it should offer science and engineering courses, but that does not mean that we should ignore other important courses that are not science related but being useful to the society. Science without a  human face is not good for the society, therefore, we will introduce the Department of Social Sciences and Humanities,” said Amey.
