Message From Head of Department

The Department of Biotechnology since its inception in 2018 is empowering students with the knowledge, skills, and the latest developments in the field of biotechnology by providing tremendous flexibility and learning opportunities through choice-based approach. The Department offers the best education and hands-on expertise in the various established domains of biotechnology including – Animal Biotechnology, Plant Biotechnology, Microbiology, Nano-biotechnology, Molecular Biology, and Computational Biology. The unique approach of adopting a multidisciplinary curriculum allows the students to learn and explore distinct subjects from various disciplines at the same time. Students have the opportunity to choose elective courses of their choice which help to expand their knowledge and broaden the job opportunity. The evolution of teaching pedagogy applied at Era University makes the curriculum more dynamic as it incorporates not just learning through lectures but also applying the concepts with the help of Seminars, Training, Educational visits, Quizzes, Practical’s, Self-Directed Learning (SDL) and other creative exercises.
All our faculty members have excellent academic credentials having rich and varied teaching and research exposure with publications in many national and international journals of repute and projects sanctioned from different funding agencies like UPCST, ICMR, DBT, DST etc.
We encourage our students to take internships in Research & Development organizations and Government institutes, expose them to Institutional/Educational tour for research skill development and also engage students by organizing national and international conferences, seminars, workshops, and College Club activities that give them knowledge beyond the curriculum.
