Have a question related to DU Delhi ?

Is pursuing biomedical science in delhi university is good? If it is yes BCAS or ANDC is good?

Hey Anusree, great question about Biomedical Science at Delhi University!

Let's break it down:

So, is a B.Sc. (Hons) in Biomedical Science at DU a good idea?

Absolutely! If you're fascinated by the molecular and cellular side of health and disease, it's a fantastic choice.

You'll gain the knowledge and skills you need for a career in research, diagnostics, or other related fields.

Now, you're asking whether Acharya Narendra Dev College (ANDC) or Bhaskaracharya College of Applied Sciences (BCAS) is better.

Here's a quick comparison to help you decide: Acharya Narendra Dev College (ANDC):

  • Academics: ANDC is known for really focusing on science education and research. Students rave about the teaching quality and the faculty's experience.
  • Infrastructure: They've got well-equipped labs and classrooms, which definitely helps create a good learning environment.
  • Placements: Okay, so placements are said to be just average. But they do offer guidance if you're planning on higher studies and a research career.

Bhaskaracharya College of Applied Sciences (BCAS):

  • Academics: BCAS offers a pretty comprehensive Biomedical Science program designed to get you ready for research and diagnostics careers. They really emphasize practical skills along with the theory.
  • Infrastructure: This is where BCAS shines! They boast some exceptional lab facilities and classrooms with e-learning tools, making the learning experience top-notch.
  • Placements: BCAS has an active placement cell that tries to find job opportunities for students. But let's be real, like with many specialized science programs, a lot of grads go on to further studies to boost their career prospects. So, how do you choose? Here's what to think about:
  • Faculty and Teaching Quality: Both colleges have experienced faculty who are dedicated to helping students succeed. You really can't go wrong with either.
  • Infrastructure: BCAS is known for its state-of-the-art labs and e-learning facilities. That could give them an edge when it comes to hands-on training.
  • Research Opportunities: Check out the research projects and collaborations each college offers. Getting involved can seriously enhance your learning.
  • Location and Campus Life: Don't forget to consider the overall vibe of the campus, the extracurriculars, and student life.

These things make a big difference in your overall experience. Basically, both ANDC and BCAS have strong Biomedical Science programs.

The best choice really depends on your interests, career goals, and what you're looking for in terms of campus facilities and culture.

If you can, try to visit both campuses and chat with current students or faculty. That'll give you the best insights to help you make your decision!


Yes, you can likely select Maths as a domain in CUET UG even though you were a PCB student in your main Class 12. Here's why:

Delhi University's rules for CUET UG say you need to appear in CUET in subjects that you have passed in Class 12. Since you appeared privately and passed Additional Mathematics, DU should consider this as a subject you've passed.

Therefore, when you fill the CUET UG form, you should be able to choose Mathematics as one of your domain subjects alongside your language paper.

However, its super important to check the specific eligibility criteria for the exact course you want to join in DU. Different courses might have specific subject requirements in CUET. For example, a B.Sc. Maths (Hons) will definitely need Maths in CUET.

So, while you can probably choose Maths in CUET because you passed it as an additional subject, always double - check the DU course  requirements on their official admission website to make sure your subject combination in CUET will make you eligible for the course you're aiming for.

I hope this helps.
