Any student with minimum of second division in F.Sc or equivlanet, with Physics, can get
admission in BS Physics program. A core “additional maths for scientsts” course will be
mandatory in the 1st semester for all those students who are majoring in Physics. This course
will provide opportunity to Pre-Med students, so they can choose physics for their carrier.
The requirement for the BS degree in Physics is 132 credit hours of approved undergraduate
courses. Out of these 137 credit hours, at least 70 credit hours must be from physics courses
(out of 70 at least 50 credit hours should be from the core courses). Semester wise detail is
given in the following tables.
