BS Chemistry – Lahore College for Women University

BS Chemistry at Lahore College for Women University is a four-year degree offered to women at the Jail Road campus in Lahore. The Department of Chemistry sits within the Faculty of Science and Technology, and the program is open on both regular and self-support seats according to the Fall 2026 admission notice.

Program Overview

The degree covers the four main branches of chemistry – organic, inorganic, physical and analytical – together with biochemistry, environmental chemistry, spectroscopy, polymer chemistry and industrial chemistry.
