Department of Science and Technology
Learning science and technology enables individuals, whether educators or learners, to acquire knowledge and scientific thinking skills that enhance the ability for self-directed exploration and creativity across various fields. It also develops the capacity to keep pace with the rapidly evolving technological advancements, serving as an infrastructure for personal and societal success. The proposed program aims to prepare qualified teachers to instruct science and technology topics in secondary schools, including specializations in biology, chemistry, physics, and technology.
The program works towards ensuring learners' proficiency in advanced learning techniques and laboratories. This is aimed at elevating the knowledge level of high school students in these subjects, fostering their interest in specializing in them during their secondary education, and facilitating their acceptance into academic and professional life, ultimately easing their admission to universities in technological subjects.
The program transcends the boundaries of traditional school subjects and textbooks, reaching into new educational concepts that suit the technological demands of the 21st century. It integrates different aspects of knowledge, such as applied sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, environmental science, and technology), engineering (machines and 3D printers), digital technologies (artificial intelligence), nanotechnology, and social media (new media and languages). The program is suitable for anyone seeking personal and professional development, staying abreast of technological advancements relevant to education, and meeting admission requirements.
