Learn more about MS Biological Sciences

Faculty of Sciences was established in Oct, 2013 and undergraduate programs of BS Biotechnology, Biochemistry and Zoology are successfully running with more 800 students and 2 batches were passed out. This program comprises of a modern curriculum including Molecular & Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Cell Signaling, Genetics and Genomics, Advanced Methods in Biology and Computational Biology and Biostatistics. In addition to these courses, there is a list of elective courses for the both streams. This program will help to enhance agriculture and livestock productivity and to provide means in controlling various diseases related to plant, animal and human. This will consequently lead to uplift of community of whole Pakistan but specially Sialkot division. Faculty of Science will focus on the problem-oriented research related to industries and public service.

They also have an opportunity to apply theoretical foundation in a real-world setting.
