The College of Science (CSCI) at TTU was started
on the first day of the academic year 2005-2006 with
two departments, chemistry and Physics.
Since then, the College has been working on
establishing of B.Sc. programs in several branches of
science on modern bases. In the chemistry department
two B.Sc. programs have been developed, namely,
chemistry and chemical technology. The main goal
of chemical technology is to dridge the gap between
pure chemistry and local industries which require
skilled professionals in applied chemistry . Most of
current chemistry programs in Jordanian
universities concentrate on pure chemistry but non of
these programs deals with technological aspect of
chemistry. Thus, this new program will hopefully
fulfill the needs of the developing industry. At the
beginning of the 2nd semester 2005/2006 a B.Sc.
program in mathematics has been established and
started receiving new
students.
Now,
after two years , the number of students that has been
enrolled in the previously mentioned programs has
reached (750) students. Moreover, plans for a
large College building are now ready hoping to start
the construction in of sciences the year 2008. In the new building
all the facilities such as teaching laboratories,
research laboratories, classroom, will be
established. With high
ambition and efforts I hope that the College of science at TTU
will be one of the high standard College among
Jordanian universities.
