Faculty of Science Handbook, Session 2016/2017

The Bachelor of Science (BSc) is generally a 7 - semester programme with the exception of Bachelor of Actuarial
Science which is an 8 semester programme. The time span of each programme allows undergraduates to
sufficiently plan their pathway without burdening themselves with too many credits in one semester. You are
advised to seek counsel with any of the appointed members of the panel of academic advisors for your respective
programmes of study whenever you are facing any difficulties and uncertainties regarding academic and other
matters related to your studies at this Faculty. Undergraduates are also reminded to understand and obey the
rules set by the university as stated in the University of Malaya (First Degree Studies) Rules & Regulations 2013
together with Undergraduate Faculty of Science Handbook Session 2016/2017.
