The School of Physical Sciences is one of the schools under the College of Agriculture and Natural Sciences, University of Cape Coast. It was carved out of the then Faculty of Science in the 2006/2007 academic year. Student Enrolment The student enrolment of the School is as follows:   Gender Total Undergraduate Students Male Female   Level 100 561 144 705 Level 200 420 110 530 Level 300 310 74 384 Level 400 398 65 463 Total 1,689 393 2,082 Graduate Students       M.Phil. 26 4 30 Ph.D. 23 5 28 Total 49 9 58 Physical Structures and Virtual Infrastructure The School of Physical Sciences has acquired and installed twenty (20) high-speed computers worth One Hundred Thousand Ghana Cedis (GHS¢100,000.00) to fully operationalize the newly established Embedded Systems and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory to supports undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and learning.   The School has successfully completed the creation of the Department of Water and Sanitation out of the existing Chemistry Department, following an approval by the Vice-Chancellor of the University. The full-fledged department is expected to start running its own undergraduate and postgraduate programmes from the first semester of 2019/2020 academic year.   The School has acquired a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and an Ultra-Pure Laboratory Water System to help improve practical teaching and learning.   The School has also initiated the procurement process of twenty-five (25) desk-top computers to augment the number of computers in the Computer Science Laboratory. International Partnerships and Industry Linkage The School is collaborating with Ghana Atomic Energy Commission (GAEC) And International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to design academic programmes that are relevant to the development of the human capital of the country and the continent at large.   The School has accepted a proposal from Professor Bimal Sinha, Founder of Statistics Graduate Programme, University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), USA to host and co-organise the 7th African International Conference (AIC) on Statistics. The 4-day conference is scheduled from 25th – 28th May, 2020.   The School of Physical Sciences through the collaborative support of the University of Akron, U.S.A, has initiated a process to establish an engineering programme in the University of Cape Coast.   The School also hosted a Fulbright Scholar from the Pennsylvania State University, U.S.A in the academic year under review. Future Plans To build a strong school with state-of-the-art scientific equipment to promote postgraduate research. To move into artificial intelligence and robotics. To undertake national and international research projects to enhance the visibility of the School, College and the University of Cape Coast. To increase postgraduate students enrolment by 20 percent in the next academic year.
