CUZ

The Faculty of Education, Social Sciences and Humanities thrives for excellence as it educates students who are fit for the 21^st Century while contributing meaningfully to the sustainable development of Zimbabwe through Education 5.0 and curricula relevant to Zimbabwe’s development agenda and beyond.

The Faculty of Humanities was birthed in the year 2000 mainly focusing on Bachelor of Arts programmes.  Other Social Sciences and Humanities programmes, at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, continued to be added over the years.  The Bachelor of Education programmes were established in 2019 under the Faculty of Education.  The two faculties were later merged in 2021 to become the Faculty of Education, Social Sciences and Humanities when the Catholic University of Zimbabwe restructured its faculties in response to the dwindling numbers of students taking the Bachelor of Arts programmes.

The faculty, through its departments of Education and Social Sciences and Humanities, has continued to thrive, driven by the University’s vision of being “the University of choice for inclusive, holistic and adaptive education in a Christian environment”, the Education 5.0 philosophy, Vision 2030, Agenda 2063 as well as Sustainable Development Goals.

As a faculty, we work in partnership with other organisations and industry with like-minded research and innovation goals to enhance scholastic experiences and research output at the CUZ both for students, and lecturers.  The faculty’s scholastic experiences are also enhanced through the Erasmus+ Mobility agreements for students and staff which it has enjoyed since 2022 with the Katholische Hochschule Nordrhein-Westfalen (Catholic University of Applied Sciences) katho in Germany.  The faculty, through its departments, is also involved in several community engagement activities with surrounding communities and stakeholders.

The Faculty of Education, Social Sciences and Humanities is ready for you.  Come and join us!
