Undergraduate Programs DBS

Department of Biosciences (DBS) is a newly established department of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical and Allied Health Sciences, Shifa Tameer-e-Millat University which is an HEC recognized, federally chartered University. Located at Park Road Campus, DBS is well-positioned to become an innovative center focused on education, research and industrial applications.

BS Biotechnology, BS Microbiology and MS Applied Biosciences programs have been developed in line with the Higher Education Commission guidelines to train the undergraduates and graduates who can be an important component of the academia and industry. In addition to the academic excellence, we focus on grooming and enhancement of the students so that they can serve as responsible citizens of the society. The educational programs at DBS have been designed to fulfill the current needs with regard to professionalism, marketability, employability, and entrepreneurship. The Department strategy going forward is based on:

• Maintenance of strength in traditional areas of expertise;
• Building on emerging areas of Biosciences to establish new foci;
• Filling gaps by providing broad training in the modern discipline of Biosciences. In particular, meeting the needs of professional programs and evolving teaching and research programs in other units and Faculties;
• Featuring the convergence of modern Biosciences; areas that might traditionally have been quite distinct are sharing more and more technical and conceptual overlap.
