NSCI 103 - General Science
Course Description
Science and Technology have completely transformed the way we live. The development
we have seen in the past few decades is unprecedented but very few understand the
principles through which the scientific progress is achieved. This course, especially
designed for first year students introduces various fields of natural science, how scientists
operate within these fields, what methods they deploy to make new discoveries, and how
they communicate the advances in their fields to the world.
The course starts with an introduction to the development of the scientific approach. lt
discusses the modern use of the scientific method and the tools and resources that
scientists deploy to ensure that they produce authentic and reliable bodies of knowledge.
Students are then introduced to three main branches of science (Physics, Chemistry and
Biology), their core underlying principles, major developments in these fields and their
applications in modern life. Students will work on case studies and lab experiments to
understand how scientists discover various workings of nature and the missteps that they
can take while conducting any scientific inquiry. The final part of the course focusses on
the skills to separate valid science from fringe science. Students are also exposed to the
fundamentals of scientific communication and strategies to identify reliable bodies of
knowledge.
Course Outcomes
Through successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
. Clearly articulate the development of scientific thought through various parts of human
history and compare it to the modern scientific method.
. Describe various branches of Science, their underlying core ideas, and compare their
applications.
. Using case studies and demonstrations, practice application of the Scientific Method
in the natu ral sciences.
. Determine whether a given claim or belief is scientifically valid or not and provlde a
clear rationale for doing so.

4 Kana wa Dimna'.
Kalila wa Dimnais a collection of fables in Arabic dating back to the 8rh century CE. The fables
were originally written in Sanskrit and trace their origins to lndia prior to the 6t century. After
being translated to Pahlavi, they were then translated into Arabic by Abdullah ibn Muqaffa
during the Abbasid era and since then have been in circulation around the world in numerous
languages. The story of Kalila and Dimna revolves around an ambitious jackal, Dimna, who
navigates his way in the king's court to win his favor and become his most trusted advisor. ln
the progression of this story, various sub-stories are recounted couched in elaborate idioms
and metaphors that all eventually culminate in a moral lesson for its characters and the reader.

fVluhammad lqbal's works of Urdu poetry, published in1924.lt came after his initial three books

Dard is divided into three distinct parts based on differences that are chronological and also
thematic. eight poems from Bang-i Dard have been chosen in accordance with the general
theme of this component i.e. fables. They feature various animals, and at times inanimate

Gulistdn-e- Saa{t
Sharf al-Din Saadi Shirazi was born in Shiraz, lran, at the turn of the 12t, century. Saadi was
rarsed in a family of religious scholars and received his initial education in his hometown and
later in the illustrious city of Baghdad where he was under the tutelage of the famous scholar
q1 -)
lbn al-Jawzi. Alongside his traditional education in the lslamic sciences, Saadlwas also deeply
influenced by Sufism. His deep commitment to Sufism and the moral project of purifying and
elevating the self, permeate his works of poetry and especially his most famous work, for which
he earned lasting acclaim throughout the Muslim world, namely, the Gulistan. His hikdydt, or
short stories, that are the subject of this component, are an extension of this moral project and
offer the reader advice and guiding principles in various domains of life. These hikayeb can
be tied together given their emphasis on the development of personal virtue and the subduing
of the lower self; resonating through each of them is a deep Sufi ethic that follows the Divine
law in both letter and spirit with an unwavering concern for the permanent and the ever-lasting

AHUM 110 - History and Civilization
Course Description
History as mother of knowledge, in wriften and Remains, teaches lessons and provides
continuities for current and future plans and developments of mankind. In this sense
historical remains provide basis for the understanding of current and funrre of human
society and culture. Historical memory and historical spaces dictate human behavior and
development. Historical knowledge and Architectural structures of past and present host
the most mundane and the ordinary activities as well as elaborate ceremonies to honor
religious cultural and political sentiments or to propitiate political deities and the processcs
thereof. Some themes, theories and strxctures established for one purpose sonretimes end
up serving the other in subsequent tinres.
The course initiate a method of interactive leaming how the sources of history can be
approached to understand the process ofcontinuity from the past to present and future and
how historical remains and continuity form the part of current cuiture and civilization. For,
the students shall get familiar with the conceptual aspects of learning history arrd
simultancously shall have a glimpsc ofcivilizational continuitics reprcsented by Historical
Remains especially archaeological and architectural and continuities thereof.
This is an lntroductory and basic lcvel course consist ofa review of major concepts relevant
to the understanding of history as a discipline and as a Process. lt focuses on the
introduction of major concepts, terminologics and issues, undcrstanding of thosc are
essential for the study of history. As it is supposed that str.rdents ofBS across the disciplines
can join the course therefore, it is expected that many of the students will not be aware
about thc basic idea of history. It will avoid the complexities involved in the understanding
of the discipline of History. However it will aim at the clarification of basic notions or ideas
about what is history and what is history for. It evolves around the idea of the place of
history as a source of knowledge and how can we approach historical knoi.vledge with a
sense ofevolution. ln this context, understanding of history and historical achievements in
the form of narratives as wcll as Historical remains bccome focus.
Learning Objectives
To be able to understand historical continuity of life, culture and structure that existed in
and around society during certain historical moments ofpresentation ofHistorical nanativc
and existence of Historical mouument. Some of the themes and approaches to study a past
shall be spaccs, identities, processes, relations and monument in socio-cultural, religious,
cconomic and political context. To make students arvare of the nature of historical
knowledge and research. This shall acquaint reader with the images of past and
controvcrsies thereof in the evolution of understanding and transmission ofpast.
4rl
Tools & Methodology
The course shall begin by a lecture method and reading assignments and move towards a
pattem of discussion/demonstration and prssentation of practical problems in
understanding historical knowledge. Short lecture and site demonstration of somc major
basic scientific developments affcctirrg social changc by the students who had been
students of natural sciences and by the experts of architecture/archaeology/museology
where it deem necessary shall be made. Short assignments/ surprise test and class
participation shall be markcd against twcnty marks of sessional category to help devclop
efficiency among the students:
The teacher shall provide relevant rnaterial with an expectation that students thernselves
shall try to expand their knowledge through the extra readings. However, some field
practices and personal exercises and experiences shall form the essential part of teaching
methodology. Other tools of tcaching and leaming sliall be Multi-Media, Globe Map, Telc-
films or movies or documentaries, Surveys of Museums, archaeological sites, obseruation
of cultural festivals, ctc.

(2) After class, reread the text, or get on to more helping material from the rclated internct sources, Sometimes, il]ternet sources
will explain a concept better than thc class lectue or the text.
(3) In strLdying for class tests or exams, use the text to "flag" or highlight the material covered in class that still is not clcar, Thc
students are encouraged to ask qucstions relevant to the topics still not clear or understood wcll.
(4) Thc studcnts can also avail themselves ofconsulting hours for unresolved questions.

Course Description:
This is the entrepreneurial age. More than 500 million persons worldwide either were actively involved in starting
a new venture or were owner-managers of a new business in 2010. Entrepreneurs are drlving a revolution that is

birth of new enterprises gives a market economy its vitality. New and emerging businesses create a substantial
proportion of the innovative products and services that transform the way we work and live, such as personal
computers (PCs), computer software, the lnternet and the World Wide Web (WWWor Web), biotechnology drugs,
overnight package deliveries, and big-box stores, One of the most common questions that entrepreneu rship
educators are asked is, Can entrepreneurship be taught? We respond that anyone with a desire to become an
entrepreneur will be more successful if they have taken a course on how to start and grow a new venture.
Course Obiectives:
The primary aim of this course is to combine concepts and cases to present the latest theory about
entrepreneurship and relate actual experiences. The images cover what would-be entrepreneurs need to know to
start and grow their businesses, and the cases illustrate how real entrepreneurs have gone out and done it. They
cover all stages of the entrepreneurial process, from searching for an opportunity to shaping it into a commercially
attractive product or service, launching the new venture, building it into a viable business, and eventually
harvesting it.
Course Outcomes:
After completing this course, students will be able to:
. Apply the entrepreneurial process
. Analyze the feasibility of a new venture business concept
. Evaluate their entrepreneurial tendency and ability
. Brainstorm ideas for new and Innovative products or services
. Use a variety of feasibility tests, assess and select prospective new venture concepts for further study
. Conduct focus groups, surveys, and other methods for researching customer reaction to various new venture
concepts

and other issues relevant to specific new venture concepts
