BS Biochemistry

Biochemistry is a central discipline to all branches of Biology/Life Sciences that studies the molecules and chemistry of life. The programme revolves around the structure, properties and interactions of molecules and the knowledge of biochemical processes that can affect human disease, genetics and bacteria.  Biochemistry at FoLS is one of the most vibrant and visible faculty among the Pakistani Universities because of its location, the competition for admission in the Ph.D., MS and BS Programmes. FoLS has ideal students to the faculty ratio, teaching experience of the faculty, publications, extra research grants/support the faculty generates from National and International Organizations and in terms of infrastructural facilities. In addition, the faculties are able to fortify collaboration in the new and interdisciplinary research areas such as Nano-Biology, Medical Biotechnology, and Stem Cell Biology etc.
