DEPARTMENT OF MICROBIOLOGY

The Department of Microbiology was established as UG (Vocational Course) in 2001 with a view to imparting quality biology education to the students of the farmers of this area. Microbiology is one of the most dynamic areas of life sciences, as microbes are evolutionary and ecological pioneers and have immense economic importance in our everyday life. Microbiology posses many other disciplines including bacteriology, mycology, Phycology, immunology, parasitology and virology. The department has necessary facilities required to run UG and PG courses. The Department of Microbiology of our college has well equipped and furnished laboratories to provide hands-on-training to our undergraduate and postgraduate students. The laboratories are equipped with equipments such as Biological Safety Cabinets (LAF), Monoocular and binocular Microscopes with camera attachment to the computer, Spectrophotometers, Thermal Cycler (PCR), UV-double beam Spectrophotometer, Large and small both the type Autoclaves, Incubators, Centrifuges, Shaker incubators, Vortex Shaker, Electrophoresis set up, High precision electronic balances, pH analyzers, cooling cabinet, Reverse Osmosis water purifier, Gel Documentation System, Double Distillation Unit  and department elevated to PG level in 2005.

Classrooms labs and Library :

There are separate classrooms and labs for B.Sc. and M.Sc. Classes. The department has two lecture rooms and a seminar cum lecture room. There is a separate departmental library for PG students.
