The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has catapulted the Indian Education system into a new direction. The focus has now evolved towards creating future thought leaders, job creators by laying the groundwork for developing inter-woven capabilities of critical thinking, problem solving and creativity.
School of Sciences at Woxsen University has been established with the aim of giving the next generation of scientists/inventors/innovators a strong foundation to build their innovations. In addition to assisting students in acquiring theoretical knowledge, academia will also offer guidance through unique pedagogy to help students develop the necessary knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA) and show that they have the capacity to develop novel solutions to challenging issues.
In a field like science, which frequently experiences rapid technological advancements, the School of Sciences makes sure that students have exposure to cutting-edge technology, so they are prepared for the industry and are able to tackle new-age challenges. Science Education not only equips students with the necessary skills for a successful career but also shapes their understanding about how the world functions.
Bachelor in Science is rewarding in so many ways in today’s world. Bearing this in mind, Woxsen’s B.Sc (Hons.) has been structured with the most sought-after disciplines owing to its provision of offering versatile roles in various sectors. From higher education to lucrative jobs, it helps students in a multitude of ways by enhancing their research skills, theoretical knowledge, reasoning and qualitative skills.
