Box: Khartoum 11111, Sudan E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.uofk.edu Vice Chancellor: Prof. Ahmed Mohamed Suliman BSc, MSc, PhD Overview : The roots of the University of Khartoum (U of K) go back to 1898 when Lord Kitchener of Khartoum proposed founding a college in memory of General Gordon.The new college, named the Gordon Memorial College, was officially opened in 1902. A secondary stratum was added in 1905 for the purpose of training assistant engineers. In 1924, the College developed into a vocational secondary school concentrating on teaching the following disciplines: Sharia, Engineering, Teachers’ Training, Clerical Work, Accounting and Science. In the same year Kitchener School of Medicine was established. The year 1936 witnessed the beginning of higher education in the Sudan with the establishment of the School of Law. By 1940 the College included schools of Agriculture, Arts, Law, Science, Engineer- ing and Veterinary Science. Each School was attached to the government department in which the graduates would be expected to work. In January 1945, all these schools were brought under one administration in a special arrangement with the University of London. The College was upgraded in 1951 to become Khartoum University College. In the same year Kitchener School of Medicine was incor- porated in the University College. The University of London set the examinations and awarded the degrees. The outstanding students were awarded bachelor degrees from the University of London and the rest obtained the College diplomas. The present University of Khartoum is the result of the natural transformation of the University College of Khar- toum when the country became independent in 1956. The bill giving full University status to the College was passed by Parliament on 24th July 1956, since then, the University witnessed considerable expansion.

This Act has replaced both Atomic Energy Research Institute and the Atomic Energy Committee and vested their functions (Research, Coordination and Services) in the newly established Commission.

Historical Background Sudan becomes a member of the International Atomic energy Agency in 1958; one year after it had came into being. In 1962 Sudan Atomic Energy Committee was constituted to act as a focal point responsible for co-coordinating between Sudan Government and the Agency in matters related to nuclear energy. In 1971”Sudan Atomic Energy Committe Act” was issued mainly establishing a committee affiliated to the National Geology Corporation and meant to supervise the implementation of the IAEA technical cooperation program in Sudan. The “Atomic Energy Committee Act, 1973” established a committee, under the supervi- sion of the chairman of National Research Council, with the mandate of promoting use of nuclear techniques in the country and also, overseeing safety in all activities involving use of ionizing radiation

Objectives of SAEC The SAEC shall pursue the following objects, to: 1. Care for the national interests, at both the international and national levels, with respect to the atomic energy affairs, and follow-up the developments thereof, 2. Enable the State to utilize atomic energy, in the peaceful purposes, in service of the plans and programs of economic development, 3. Ensure the safety of human beings, animals and the environment, in general, against radiation risks, and disseminate awareness’ of such risks among individuals

RADIATION SAFETY INSTITUTE Radiation Safety Institute (RSI) was established in 2004. The objectives of the RSI are to: 1. Provide radiation protection services to the institutes and companies using radiation

84 85 sources. 2. Train radiation workers on how to deal with radiation safely. 3.
