Welcome to Department of Genetics

About

Department of Genetics was established in the year 1994 – 1995 with meagre strength of 22 students with Microbiology,Genetics and Chemistry as the optional subjects. Later on another group of Biochemistry, Genetics and Chemistry was included in accordance with the demand of these subjects. The department was further expanded with a well – furnished laboratory and a wonderful library, which is readily accessible to all the students. The text books and journals are of wide range, which include Indian as well foreign edition and help the students to know the world of science and technology.

In the last five years the department got university ranks. Students are encouraged to prepare assignments & seminars. To make the students environmentally conscious & responsible, the department organized various awareness campaigns which provide a great learning experience to the students.

Vision
