BS Physiology is a four-year undergraduate degree studying how living systems function — the mechanisms of organs, tissues and cells in health and disease.
What You’ll Study
Coursework covers human and comparative physiology, cell physiology, neurophysiology, cardiovascular and respiratory physiology, endocrinology, exercise physiology, and laboratory techniques in physiological measurement.
Career Scope in Pakistan
Graduates work in clinical and diagnostic laboratories, physiological testing and measurement, pharmaceutical research support, health and fitness and exercise science, medical education and teaching, and research institutes.
Physiology is a strong foundation for postgraduate work in health sciences and for allied health pathways, but direct employment at bachelor’s level is narrower than for microbiology or medical technology. Students should plan for postgraduate study or a complementary applied qualification if clinical or research careers are the goal.
