MISSIONS

M1: To provide Biotechnology based educational program with impetus to generate quality workforce.
M2: To create awareness about potentials of Biotechnology with socio-ethical implications.
M3: To develop trained biotechnological professionals who can contribute to continuous improvement of biotechnological services and products.
M4: To impart quality education to the students and enhance their skills making them globally competitive.
Biotechnology is the use of living systems and organisms to develop or make useful products, or “any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use” Biotechnology unifies biology and technology by covering a wide range of subjects like agriculture, animal husbandry, biochemistry, bio-statistics, cell biology, chemistry, crop management, cropping system, ecology, engineering, genetics, health, immunology, medicine, microbiology, plant physiology, soil science, soil conservation, seed technology, and virology, etc. Scope of biotechnology in India There is an immense possibility of getting jobs in this field as the demand for biotechnologists is growing in India as well as abroad. It is estimated that more than 60000 biotechnologists of top skill are required in India as per the survey made by the Human Resource Development Ministry.
