Welcome to the School of Science at the University of Jordan…..

The Royal Decree was issued to establish the University of Jordan in 1962 and the School of Science was one of the first Schools at the university, where the college was established in 1965, and teaching began in early October
of the same year. The beginning was with four departments: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Life Sciences.
He established the Department of Geology in 1973. In 2016, the Department of Medical Laboratory Sciences was opened.
The last departments of the School of Science.
The College of Science started in the year of its establishment with 112 students distributed over the first four departments.

Where the number of buildings for the departments of the college became six, in addition to the building of the Deanship of the College and the building of the nuclear accelerator (of the Department of Physics) in addition to the auditorium of the martyr and Wasfi Al-Tal, which can accommodate (250) people.
The college includes many research laboratories that contain advanced scientific devices, most notably resonance devices
Nuclear magnetic, mass spectroscopy, single crystal X-ray and fluorescent X-rays,
Van de Graaff accelerator (nuclear accelerator), scanning electron microscopy and polarized light microscopy
and many others.
All these devices work to serve scientific research, as the college has taken the lead in scientific production.
at the university level, which is the most published in the Scopus and Web of Science databases among the faculties
The university also won many of its faculty members international and local awards and in high ranks.
The college has taken rapid and confident steps in developing its programs to ensure the quality of its outputs. Where I got
