This
is a 3 year B.Sc. Degree program which is divided
into 6 semesters. This program prepares graduates
for careers in Life Science in the fields of Biotechnology,
Chemistry and Zoology.
Apart from these subjects, a student gets an opportunity
to learn compulsory subjects like Computer
Fundamentals, Indian Constitution and Environmental
Science which is an added advantage.
About
the course :
Biotechnology :
Biotechnology is the science which deals with
the technology in biological science where application
of knowledge of genes and genetic materials for
the betterment of human welfare is employed. Biotechnology
is a combination of microbial gene technology,
cell biology, genetic engineering, molecular biology,
recombinant DNA technology, plant and animal biotechnology.
It is a highly evolved subject which deals with
the latest scientific techniques.
Study of biotechnology at graduation level
enables students to take up specialized sciences
such as molecular biology, genetic engineering,
microbial gene technology, medical biotechnology
at post graduation level. They can also do MBA
in biotechnology.
Chemistry :
Chemistry is the central science. It is the
science about substances their composition,
structure, properties and interactions. Chemistry
helps to explain the physical world and its
workings and plays an important role in our
life. Chemistry has contributed a great deal
too technical advances of society and has made
many important contributions to modern life.
Every component is made from one or more chemical
elements that occur in nature. In chemistry
use of different kinds of chemical processes
to make the elements more useful and they create
countless products that make our lives healthier,
easier and more enjoyable.
Globally the development of industries in one
or the other way needs the knowledge of chemistry.
In the fields of pharmaceutical, chemical, food,
mineral water industries as they posses quality
controlling, production unit need the persons
of chemistry background. Chemistry is a powerful
springboard to launch into a fascinating career.
Chemistry courses combine general education
with preparation for immediate employment. A
person with a bachelor’s level education
in chemistry is prepared to assume a wide variety
of positions in industry, government and academics.
Zoology :
The branch of biology that
studies animals, including their structure,
function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution.
Zoology is a complex science having immense
number of problems yet to be solved.
The study of zoology is necessary
for preprofessional work in medicine, dentistry,
nursing, veterinary science, dietetics, agriculture,
fishery, poultry, sericulture, apiculture, conservation
of wildlife, sanitary engineering and many other
fields. Medical sciences have profited from
zoological discoveries, for concepts formed
by studying one group of animals can be applied
also to other groups including man. Zoology
study furnishes the basis for psychological
and sociological studies. At present there is
a lively study of animal behaviour and its implications
of human application, which is indicative of
this interest.
The study of zoology
is an excellent discipline for mind. This is
true for all sciences, but it is particularly
true of life sciences that have a unique role
in mans cultural pattern. Biological concepts
influence our thinking in every realm of human
interest. For instance, the concept of evolution
or the transformation of organisms from one
type to another during geological eras, has
affected concepts in philosophy, psychology,
sociology, religion and many other disciplines.
One of the fascinating facets of biological
study is the ever changing nature of its concepts
