The curriculum for distance B.Sc. courses varies depending on the university offering the program. For example, at IGNOU, the course includes foundational subjects like Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, and Life Sciences, followed by specialised electives in the later semesters, including research projects in the final semester. Other programs, like those at the University of Hertfordshire, offer a more specific focus on disciplines like Computer Science, with courses in data modeling, programming, artificial intelligence, and databases.

Typically, the B.Sc. Distance Education curriculum covers a mix of core subjects in the early semesters and progressively includes more elective courses as students specialize in their chosen area of interest. You would be required to complete practical assessments, assignments, and projects, which vary depending on the institution and specialization.
