History

[edit]

The origins of the Bindura University of Science Education (BUSE) formerly Bindura University College of Science Education (BUCSE) can be traced to the Zimbabwe-Cuba Teacher Training Programme, which started in the mid-1980s. The programme used to send Zimbabwean student teachers toCuba for training in Science Education. Known as the best University in terms of education in Zimbabwe.

The programme was relocated to Zimbabwe in 1995 for economic reasons. A decision was made to set up a college in Bindura under the auspices of theUniversity of Zimbabwe, but which would be turned into a full-fledgeduniversity within a period of two to four years. The college admitted its first group of 125 students in March 1996.

An act of parliament, the Bindura University of Science Education Act, was passed in February 2000 conferring university status to the College becoming the third state university established in Zimbabwe. The first graduation ceremony was held in 2003 where the Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor of the university were installed as well as capping a group of 140 graduands.

Zimbabwe opened its first-ever School of Optometry at the Bindura University of Science Education in 2018.

In 2019, a BUSE alumnus, Tatenda Magetsi received a prestigious Rhodes scholarship to study at the Oxford University in the United Kingdom.

The university is located in Bindura, which is about 89 km north east ofHarare. Bindura is the provincial capital ofMashonaland Central Province and is a small town of about 40,000 inhabitants. It offers a quiet semi-urban environment.

Politics

The university has experienced problems in Zimbabwe mainly because of its location in Mashonaland Central which is considered a stronghold of the ruling party ZANU PF. In 2002 a student belonging to theMDC party was brutally assaulted by suspectedZANU-PF supporters and the university was briefly closed.
