BACHELOR OF SCIENCE (Honours) PROGRAMME
INTRODUCTION
The Bachelor of Science (Honours) programme was first offered by the School of Distance Education since 1973. It gives the students an option to major in one of the following disciplines:
- BIOLOGY
- CHEMISTRY
- MATHEMATICS
- PHYSICS
Every discipline focuses on the areas required in training of human resources that will form the backbone of our nation's development in the fields of science and technology. The programme structure aims at teaching students the basic knowledge required for each discipline in the core courses and supplemented by an array of minor courses.
