The Department had its inception in 2009. The secret of the success of the department lies in the academic environment and close ties between teachers and students. While one enjoys such flexibility a rigid discipline is maintained as far as the classes and projects are undertaken. This makes the department efficient as a research institute minus the official rigidity there in.Presently a number of Research Projects are being carried out by the different faculty members of this department. There has been some important work in the fields of bioinformatics, cancer biology, environmental biotechnology and diseases with emphasis on mycobacteriosis and zoonotics.
