(Hons.)  Biotechnology with Research (four full academic years). The duration of this programme shall be of three years/four years (three/four full academic years) which   shall be divided into six semesters/eight semesters

The Bachelor of Science program in Biotechnology offered by HSBS is a unique combination of biology & technology. The program equips students with advance knowledge in the field & its various applications in areas such as agriculture, environmental management & industrial processes. Throughout the program the students will gain hands-on experience in using modern tools & techniques and will be exposed to state-of-the-art laboratory facilities for practical training.

The curriculum covers a range of subjects including molecular biology, microbiology, biochemistry, genetics, cell biology, and bioprocessing etc. The students also get opportunity to participate in research projects either individually or as a part of team, guest lectures, industrial visits, which provides them with valuable experience in the application of biotechnology principles in real-world situations.

Biotechnology, an offshoot of Biochemistry/ Plant & Animal biology, includes microbiology, molecular biology, genetics, chemistry, biophysics, chemical & biochemical engineering. Our program also helps students develop skills required in the use and application of standard software for Bioinformatics. It also enables a graduate student to acquire a range of subject related key skills to carry out independent scientific work/ interdisciplinary research, or venture into entrepreneurship.
