Course Curriculum Overview :
B.Sc Community Science, previously known as B.Sc Home Science, is a 4-year undergraduate program. The course includes 1 year of specialization in a chosen department. I chose this program due to my interest in Food Science and Nutrition. 5 different departments are focusing on community development and rural societies. The departments cover areas like food science, textile and apparel designing, extension education, consumer sciences and management, and human development and family studies. The program has over 15 professors and more than 250 students. Each professor holds a Ph.D. and has over 10 years of teaching experience.

Despite competent professors, there is a shortage of faculty in the program.
