Faculty of Natural Sciences

Faculty of Natural Sciences has an outstanding legacy of producing leaders in academia, medicines and health, engineering, government and non-government organizations and leaders in local communities. It is the student-centered faculty with healthy mix of undergraduate and graduate students and post-doctoral researchers. The faculty is highly committed; they go well beyond the traditional methods of teaching in order to deliver an integrated and holistic educational experience at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. They blend theory and practice with a genuine concern for the learning and success of their students. It is an exceptional group of scientists who are involved not only in high class research, but are also deeply dedicated to undergraduate education. This is reflected in their creative teaching methods, mentoring and devotion to undergraduate research. LCWU is committed to helping students gain excellent training that includes a strong foundation in the sciences and the freedom to shape their own professional paths.

Faculty of Natural Sciences offers degree programs in various disciplines including; Botany, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Geography, Zoology, Biotechnology, Environmental Science and Pharmacy. The curriculum and courses in every discipline are regularly updated which fosters wider perspectives and maintains the competitive edge required for the next generation of leaders by bringing together a diversity of experience and interests. The faculty and students perform research on a range of scientific problems of immediate relevance to the local, regional and global issues. They are funded from a variety of sources including the Higher Education Commission, Pakistan Science Foundation, Environmental Protection Department, British Council, USAID, private industry and many others. In science, there are no barriers and the Faculty of Natural Sciences has included in its educational objectives enhancing interactions with diverse peers in order to stimulate the minds of students to make their academic work more professional and creative.
