3. Instill advanced knowledge in the major areas of Biotechnology such as Animal Tissue Culture, Plant Tissue Culture, Microbiology, Genetics, and Bioinformatics.
4. Training, projects, and guest lectures collaborated with industries to help to learn from real-life situations.
5. Seminar and Project driven courses are designed to enhance technical and presentation skills.
6. Minor elective gives the students a choice to develop expertise in the interdisciplinary areas of interest, for example, CSE/IT, Management, and ECE.
7. Curriculum is equipped with 21st-century digital technologies for lead optimization and drug designing. In addition to core curricula, the course offers subjects like communication, analytical and soft skills to enhance personality and employability.
8. Usage of demo kits in addition to animations, simulations, audio-visual aids, demonstrations provide interactive teaching methodology
9. Encourage students to have maximum industrial exposure through visits for problem identification and emerging technologies.
10. Participation in technical events, sports, and cultural activities help in the holistic development of students.
