The Department of Microbiology was established in 2019 to cater to the needs of students in frontier areas of Microbiology and to strengthen teaching and research in this arena. Laboratory of the department is enriching as it is equipped with advance instruments like ELISA Reader, cooling ultracentrifuges, PCR-thermocycler, BOD Incubator, LAF station, Spectrophotometer, UV transilluminator etc. The only mandates of the department are to shape microbiologists of excellent caliber with good technical and research skills to improve their employability in academia as well as industries.
'Microbiology' as applied biological science at graduate and post-graduate levels, comprises vast areas such as Medical Microbiology, Industrial and Pharmaceutical Microbiology, Agricultural and Environmental Microbiology, Genetic Engineering, Biosafety, Bioethics, IPR, Modern Microbiology is 'Cutting Edge' sciences. This expeditiously emerging dome will offer highly qualified manpower to industry and academia in the country.
The department has dynamic and vibrant master's program in Microbiology that imparts understanding in an ingenious manner, assuring to educate fresh, fledgling minds to shape and create newer knowledge in turn. The students of the Microbiology are vibrant; who enthusiastically participate in departmental activities like presentations, industrial visits and field trips which will prepare them to enter into rapidly expanding careers in Microbiology with practical applications in business, industry, and medicine. The graduates from this department are already employed in various international and national academic, research and industrial organizations. Bearing in mind existing microbiological approaches and applications, the curriculum is designed to enlighten the students from basics to advance Microbiology.
