About Harare Institute of Technology

The Harare Institute of Technology (HIT) was granted University status in 2005 with the promulgation of the Harare Institute of Technology Act {Chapter 25:26}. HIT is the hub of technology development and delivery of quality technology programmes. It is at the forefront of growing Zimbabwe’s industrial base and natural resources beneficiation. HIT develops, incubates, transfers and commercializes technology for Zimbabwe’s rapid industrialisation. Its uniqueness lies in hands-on, practical learning. The concept of Capstone Design Projects; a unique aspect of HIT, was infused into the Curriculum to provide students with room to prove their proficiency in translating scientific concepts into tangible outputs. The capstone design projects are informed by the philosophical precepts of innovation, technopreneurship and creativity, and hold the potential for commercialisation. HIT inculcates among its graduates the philosophy of technopreneurship and develops values responsible for a mindset shift from the traditional expectation of employment by government, commerce and industry. Under the technopreneurship ethos, graduates are capacitated with the zeal and stamina to start high–tech enterprises, making an impact on the national economy.
