 BSc in Environmental Science

1. Why Environmental Science?

The students will develop ability to keenly observe the Environment
that surrounds them, which is not usually even noticed until a
critical point is reached. It will give them knowledge which will be
holistic and skill which will be creative. Today, in the name of
development, terrible underdevelopments are being wreaked. Many
lakes, rivers, pastures, marshes have become repository of arsenics,
lands have been denuded and soil has become sterile. Students Group Discussion
educated in Environment will be eco-friendly who will envision
development not hurtful to humans, plants, or animal, i.e., Nature.
They can be role-models in their respective fields.

2. Where are the career opportunities?

• Development Agency like NGOs, INGOs

• Academic Institutions & Research Centers
• Health Industries
Experimental Lab

3. What is the admission eligibility?

Candidates should have passed ISc (or 10+2 or equivalent) with
minimum of 50% marks in aggregate and 50% in PCM or PCB.

4. Financial-Aid and Scholarship:

Few scholarships are available. The University also provides loan
scholarship and financial aid for needy students.

 BSc in Human Biology
1. Why Human Biology Program?
This program aims to produce qualified personal for teaching and
research in Human Biology and related field. Medical Education in
Nepal is growing profoundly; as a consequence there is a dearth of
qualified professionals from basic medical science origin. Considering
this, the program is designed to fulfill the need of professionals,
competent enough to teach and conduct research in related field.
This course is aimed at producing a group of highly proficient young
scientists well versed in basic-medical and modern-biological
concepts and techniques. The graduates after completing the course
in Human Biology will be eligible and competent to teach basic
medical sciences in MBBS as well as Nursing and other related
programs in medical schools. In addition, they are also expected to
build their career in research, especially in emerging fields like
biotechnology and molecular biology.
2. What is Human Biology Program?
evolution & sociology, developmental biology, cell & tissue culture
technology, photochemistry, mycology & virology as main subjects.
And the last three-semester focuses on courses related to basic
medical sciences that include human anatomy, biochemistry,
pharmacology, physiology and microbiology.
Besides all these courses, emphasis is also given to the
communication skills and basic computer skills in the first year
courses in order to develop contemporary teaching skills. What is
Human Biology Program?
3. What is the admission eligibility?
Candidates should have passed ISc (or 10+2 or equivalent) with
minimum of 50% marks in aggregate and 50% in PCM or PCB.
Microbiology Lab, School of Science

Human Biology is an interdisciplinary program, focused on an area

of biological science particularly relevant to humans. It is
combination of general science and basic medical sciences.
This is a four-year (eight-semester) program. The first five semesters
(two and half-year) deals with general science and remaining
three-semesters (one and half-year) with basic medical sciences.
First two-semester courses comprise with fundamental science which
includes physics, chemistry, biology and mathematics. Next Anatomy Lab, School of Medical Sciences

three-semester includes microbiology, human genetics, biochemistry,

quantitative analysis, molecular biology, immunology, organism,

 BE in Computer Engineering
1. Why Computer Engineering?
Computer engineering students study the design of digital hardware
systems, including computers, communications systems, and devices
that contain computers. They also study software development with
a focus on the software used within and between digital devices.
The curriculum focuses on the theories, principles, and practices of
relevant areas of traditional electrical engineering and mathematics,
and applies them to the problems of designing computers and the
many kinds of computer-based devices.
