History

The Department of Science was renamed the Faculty of Science in 1893 and consisted of the Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences and the Division of Natural Sciences. Engineering and Applied Sciences were briefly joined by Architecture from 1896. As part of the reoganisation during the transfer of King's College London to the University of London, the Faculty of Science was split into two separate faculties: the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences and the Faculty of Science including the Department of Bacteriology in 1903. The Faculty of Science soon increased to include Divisions of Natural Science, Medical [later Science] Division, Department of Bacteriology and the Department of Public Health. By 1921 the Faculty of Science was once again rearranged to become the Faculty of Natural Science.
