Relation to curriculum Compulsory module for 3rd semester students. This course explores taxonomy, anatomy, and reproduction of lower plants
(algae, bryophytes, and pteridophytes). It supports CPL-1 and CPL-6 by strengthening knowledge of plant diversity, evolution,
and ecological roles. In line with ASIIN standards, this course develops observation, classification, and field-study skills
essential for botany education and research.
