scope of this programme. I was able to take up
courses from both the business and science
faculties which I found appealing. The

broadened my horizon and brought my sense of
understanding on what S&T really is in the human
life. The subjects offered are diverse yet made
suitable with the demand of technology in this
modern life. The combination of philosophy and
modern science, blended with religion gives it a
holistic approach to handling the problems we are
facing. In a nutshell, S&T has changed me mentally
