Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Biotechnology, Chemistry, Zoology (BCZ)
Programme details: BCZ (Biotechnology, Chemistry, Zoology)
The B.Sc programme on Biotechnology Chemistry and Zoology emphasizes the integration of the principles of chemistry with life sciences. It renders a holistic approach to the study of biological processes such as cell and molecular biology. By combining these disciplines, the program equips students with the knowledge to address complex biological processes and also to acquire detailed study on animal studies and their behaviour.
