SCHOOL OF BIOTECHNOLOGY
Biotechnology continues to
expand rapidly with new discoveries at a breathtaking pace. This
industry, a merger of science and business, demands a
multi-disciplinary workforce skilled in basic-research, product
development, regulatory affairs and commercialization.
The biotechnology industry harnesses advances in molecular
biology, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, bioinformatics and
nanotechnology to move discoveries and ideas out of the
laboratory and into the product development pipeline. Students
of B. Tech (Biotechnology) learn to advance their careers by
broadening their skill base and understanding of this dynamic
field.
Recognizing this wider impact of biotechnology education and
research in the 21st century, and the limitations of the
existing programmes elsewhere in India, the University School of
Biotechnology at SMVDU has placed due emphasis in the curriculum
on interdisciplinary convergence in modern biology, engineering
and technology, applied orientation, quantitative approach,
practical training, awareness of the broader social, economic,
environmental, ethical, legal and managerial issues in
biotechnology. Some of the distinguishing features of the School
include highly qualified faculty, in-house teaching, quality
laboratory infrastructure for teaching and research, individual
projects, good library, etc.
School of Biotechnology, SMVDU offers students the ability to
learn, advance and succeed in this exciting field with a variety
of learning opportunities designed to meet the needs of working
adults |
