B. Sc. (Honours/Research) in Chemistry
B. Sc. (Honours/Research) in chemistry is a four-year program based. In the first two years the programme the sudents will attend courses from various branches of basic science including courses from chemistry. In the last two years of the programme, the students transition to the School of Chemistry and study only courses from various topics of chemistry.
Programme Objectives:
- Holistic and multidisciplinary Undergraduate level education.
- Quality chemical sciences education with hands-on lab experience at different levels.
- Flexible internship choices from different domains: community service, industrial and higher education research institutes.
- Flexible options for choosing either B. Sc. (Honors) or B. Sc. (Research) in fourth year of the Programme.
