A subject considered to be the cornerstone of Medicine and Agriculture. How diseases are diagnosed ? How does clinical pathology work ? How are drugs discovered ? What can be side effects of medical treatment ? How do toxic compounds harm us ? How are agricultural crops improved ? And many more ...Study biochemistry to answer these questions.

Scope of biochemistry is limitless, so why limit yourself. You can become what you want to be ! You can work inside and outside the country in educational and research institutions, in Pharmaceutical, Food and Health industries. You can go for higher studies in Biochemistry , Chemistry, Microbiology etc. You can even study for M. D. in USA.

 

50 % of fee (except admission charge) will be refunded for the student selected in M.B.B.S. during there B.Sc

 

WHAT STUDENTS WOULD LEARN?
