FAMU College of Science and Technology

The College of Science and Technology was honored to participate in President Johnson’s Annual Toy Drive on December 5. Demonstrating our commitment to service and community engagement, the Dean and Associate Deans generously donated bicycles to help bring joy to families during this holiday season. This initiative reflects our core values and dedication to making a positive impact beyond the classroom.

Please join me in congratulating Ms. Fidara Fidudusola, a Biology major, for placing first in the Basic Sciences category at the prestigious 2025 Moffitt Scientific Symposium. The event took place on May 12-13, 2025, at the Moffitt Cancer Center and the University of South Florida’s Marshall Student Center.

Special kudos to her mentors: Dr. Karam Soliman, Dr. Samia Messeha, Dr. Caroline Odewumi, Dr. Lekan Larinwo, and heartfelt thanks for the support from Provost Dr. Watson.
