I don't think there is any need to visit the campus. The whole process is online. B.Sc. In Forensic Science is a great course that you have chosen. The programme deals with a theoretical and practical background in all the areas of criminalistics which demonstrates proficiencies in laboratory skills like forensic molecular Biology forensic Chemistry and toxicology. Eligibility Criteria (Qualifying Exam) Pass with 60% aggregate marks in 10+2 (with English Physics Chemistry and Maths or Biology or Biotechnology) or equivalent. For a candidate, who has not studied English as a subject, the condition of English may be waived off provided the candidate in his qualifying exam has studied in English medium. (5% relaxation to North-East states and Sikkim candidates/ Defence Personnel and their Dependents/ Wards of Kashmir Migrants) This is how the eligibility criteria look like at LPU.
