The Faculty conducts Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) General Degree programmes and B.Sc. Special Degree Programmes in most of the Principal Subjects. Initially, a student registers for a general degree programme, and at the end of the second year, he/she may register for a special degree programme in a principal subject. This is possible only if he/she fulfills certain criteria as stipulated in the section "Criteria for Selection to a Special Degree Programme". The duration of a special degree programme is four years. General degree students may at the end of 3 rd year be selected based on performance and given the option of following courses for an additional year with special emphasis on industry-related courses leading to a B.Sc. degree in Applied Sciences in place of a General Degree.
Course units from Biology* can be counted as 100 level course units under Botany,. Course units from either Biology* or Biology** can similarly be considered for Zoology. Specified course units from Botany, Molecular Biology & Biotechnology, and Zoology can be counted as 200 level course units for selection to Special Degree in Biology.
Students should complete all four year degree programmes within six academic years
