The Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology (aka Ministry of Higher and Tertiary Education) is a department in the Zimbabwean government who is responsible for the management of higher education and scientific and technological development within the country. The ministry was created prior to 2005.[1] It was not affected when President Mugabe in his cabinet reorganization of September 2013, split the former Ministry of Education, Sports and Culture into the Primary and Secondary Education and the Sport, Arts and Culture.[2]
The incumbent minister is Frederick Shava, who was appointed on 15 October 2024 by President Mnangagwa.[3]
Former ministers include:
- Amon Murwira 2 December 2017[4] – 15 October 2024[5][3]
