Department of Basic Science and Humanities.


Basic Science and Humanities

Science and humanities are distinct yet complementary fields that offer unique perspectives on understanding the world. Science explores the natural world through observation, experimentation, and scientific inquiry, while humanities focus on human culture, society, and history. Both are essential for a holistic understanding and contribute to various aspects of life and society
