The University of Zambia (UNZA), under the auspices of the School of Natural and Applied Sciences, has unveiled four new Master of Science programmes, a significant leap forward in the nation's scientific capacity development.

The Republican President, His Excellency, Mr. Hakainde Hichilema, has pledged to complete the students’ hostels both at the University of Zambia’s Great East Road and Ridgeway Campuses on Wednesday, 9th April 2025.

Speaking during the tour of incomplete hostels at both campuses, President Hichilema said the New Dawn government has prioritised education and is committed to resolving the challenges the university was facing. President Hichilema said his government has developed a deliberate strategy to promote education from the grassroots because education was an equaliser.
