Welcome Message from theDean - Academic AffairsWelcome to the British College of Applied Studies (BCAS). It is a privilege to send this message to BCAS which has thrived up to its present position within the last 21 years through its experience in higher education.

That provides essential knowledge, techniques, skills and information required to recognize the rights and duties of a person towards their country. It provides confidence to develop a sense of personal and social responsibility and safety to acquire transferable intellectual and practical skills. In the present educational scenario, the students need critical thinking, problem solving abilities, and a demonstrated capacity to apply knowledge in diverse situations.
