Congratulations ALMA MATER!
The Pavol Jozef Šafárik University Faculty of Science in Košice celebrates the 60th anniversary since its official foundation on February 8, 1963 by a governmental resolution no. 17/1963. Therefore, the year of 2023 is full of activities commemorating our six decades journey of education and research in natural sciences, mathematics, and information science.
From History of Faculty
The Faculty started with 54 students already in September 1962, when the Faculty of Natural Sciences of the Comenius University, with the approval of the superior authorities, relocated part of its first year students to Košice. They were enrolled in the programme of teaching combination: mathematics-physics, physics-chemistry, and biology-chemistry.
