What you need

  • Class 10 science

Questions

Which syllabus does this course follow?

It follows the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) syllabus of Environmental Science (Semester 2). Where your polytechnic follows a different board or a revised syllabus, the centre follows your own syllabus.

Will it help in the semester examination?

Yes. Every unit is covered with solved examples, unit-wise MCQs and previous-year style questions for the BTEUP theory and practical exams.

Are there projects or field visits?

Yes. Students prepare a short survey or project (e.g. waste audit of the campus) as guided by the trainer.
