BSc General at Mid-West University School of Science and Technology gives students a structured foundation in science through theory, practical work, laboratory learning, research preparation, and subject-based study.
The program has two major academic tracks: Physical Group and Biological Group. The Physical Group includes study areas such as physics, mathematics, chemistry, and statistics. The Biological Group includes study areas such as botany, zoology, and chemistry.
The program is built around an integrated academic model that connects research, practical work, and teaching. Students study core science subjects in the early semesters and move toward advanced subject areas, research methodology, scientific communication, term paper writing, project proposal work, and project work in later semesters.
Applicants should have completed +2, PCL, or equivalent level in Science from a recognized institution.
| Group | Minimum subject requirement |
|---|---|
| B.Sc. Physical | Physics and Mathematics, each 200 marks, passed with Final Grade C |
| B.Sc. Biological | Biology and Chemistry, each 200 marks, passed with Final Grade C |
The brochure also mentions at least second division or C-grade in all subjects at +2/PCL in Science or equivalent from a recognized institution.
Applicants need the following documents for the application process:
A copy of citizenship
Marksheets of Grades 11 and 12
Character certificate
Provisional certificate
Two copies of passport-size photos
The application form and information brochure are provided on request at the Dean’s Office, concerned central department, or campus. After applications are screened, eligible candidates are informed to appear in the entrance examination.
The entrance examination date is communicated by the central department or campus. Students are admitted on a merit basis.
