The study of Chemistry investigates the composition, structure, properties and change of matter resulting from interactions between substances through chemical reactions. Chemistry is often called the central science because it bridges other natural sciences like physics, biology and geology. Chemistry syllabus though encompasses traditional areas of analytical, inorganic, organic and physical chemistry; has several major sub-disciplines and several cross-disciplinary fields which students will be exposed to.Students will be comfortable on graduation working in various establishments such as Pharmaceutical and Chemical manufacturing industries, Forensic analysis, as Analytical a...

Biochemistry studies chemical processes within and relating to living organisms. Candidates will be exposed to the structures, functions, and interactions of biological macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates which provide the structure of cells and perform many of the functions associated with life. Students will be exposed to study of molecular mechanisms by which genetic information encoded in DNA is able to result in processes of life. Most findings in biochemistry are applied primarily in medicine, nutrition and agriculture.Graduates of biochemistry will find employment in food and beverage industries, and job prospects in areas such as Fore...

The aim of Department of Physics is to offer programmes designed to impact a very sound knowledge in all branches of Physics to the students. Courses are offered in Mechanics and Properties of Matter, Waves, Electromagnetism and Electronics, Thermal Physics, Atomic and Nuclear Physics Experimental Physics and applications such as in energy deployment, radiation and health physics etc. The programme will assist the students to develop the necessary skills, intellectual and mental training for a career as a physicist either in research or further postgraduate training.Successful physics graduates will be well equipped for careers in Government departments e.g. Meteorology, Geolog...

Zoology is the branch of biology that studies the structure, evolution, classification, habits and distribution of all animals both living and extinct and how they interact with their ecosystems. While the study of animal life is ancient, its scientific incarnation is modern and it deals with fields as diverse as anatomy, physiology, histology, and embryology.Graduates from Department of Zoology may find employment in specialized sectors of national and global economy. Some of these include biomedical sectors such as public health facilities in entomology, parasitology, pharmaceutical companies, diseases vector control departments, wild life and games resorts, zoological parks, ...

Modern botany is a broad multidisciplinary study of plant science with inputs from most other areas of science and technology. It includes the study of plant structure, growth and differentiation, reproduction, biochemistry, evolutionary relationships and taxonomy. The student will be exposed to new plant science techniques such as molecular genetics, genomics and DNA sequences to classify plants more accurately and diverse applications in providing staple foods and textiles in modern horticulture, agriculture and environmental management.Graduates of Botany may choose careers in agriculture and research institutions, forestry, conservation and wild life management, wood technol...
