The School of Natural and Applied Sciences at Sol Plaatje University was established in 2014 as one of the four schools that constitute the current academic structure of the University.

It comprises four clustered departments:

• Biological and Agricultural Sciences (biology, botany, zoology and agriculture)

• Computer Science and Information Technology (computer science, data science and IT related subjects)

• Mathematical Sciences (applied mathematics, mathematics and statistics)

• Physical and Earth Sciences (chemistry, geography and physics).

With SPU being a comprehensive university, we offer a range of undergraduate programmes leading to higher certificate, diploma and degree qualifications in biological, physical, computer and mathematical sciences, and also in information and communication technologies.
