Bachelor of Science [B.Sc] (Physical Sciences) Syllabus, Course Structure and Program Schedule 2024-2025

Course Structure

B.Sc. Physical Science has the option of pursuing it either with Chemistry or with Computer Science.

B.Sc Physical Science (Chemistry) student has to study subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Environmental Science, Computational Skills and English.

For B.Sc Physical Science (Electronics) the subjects prescribed are Physics, Electronics, Biology, Mathematics, Environmental Science, Computational Skills and English.

Scheme of Assessment

The course consists of mostly theory subjects with the option to choose elective subjects in 5^th and 6^th semester. A student is assessed at the end of every semester with semester exams and internal assessments which are worth of 75and 25 marks respectively which collectively makes 100 marks for every subject.

Syllabus

UGC prepares a proper set of syllabus to be covered by universities during the course term. Some of the important subjects prescribed for B.Sc. Physical Science are:
