About Department

About Department Image

The last few decades have witnessed a significant, if not revolutionary, shift in our understanding of living things and our capacity to control biological systems. This has resulted in significant advancements in biotechnology, which have a broad influence on a variety of fields, including consumer goods, agriculture, food, diagnostics, health care, and the environment. Until and unless the general public benefits from these biotechnological advancements, they are pointless.
Only if such technologies are adopted for production on an industrial scale would this be possible. The Department provides a special combination of applied biological sciences skills. It aims to apply this knowledge to advance different biotechnological processes and products. Achieving this goal is thought to be possible through:

  • (a) producing highly skilled human resources with the ability to quantitatively analyse biological systems, which will enable them to play a part in staffing contemporary bioprocess industries and offer an integrated approach to biotechnology research and development.
  • (b) To keep improving research and development initiatives for bio-industrial goods and services that are environmentally sustainable, such as bio-energy, biopolymers, clean environment, and medicines.
  • (c) Taking the lead in worldwide advancements in applied biological sciences and bioprocess technology, as well as facilitating involvement in sponsored research and industrial consultancy.
  • (d) Sharing information produced by conferences, workshops, and short-term courses
