Department of Microbiology

Microbiology is scientific discipline that deals with the study of microorganisms. Microorganism’s exits everywhere and have enormous impact on human health and environment. The department of Microbiology was established in June 2015 with the vision of bridging the gap between classical microbiology and applied aspects of microbiology with research on infectious diseases, immunology, biofuels and bioenergy. The main objective of the department to impart quality education in the field of microbiology and to create trained microbiologist to contribute to the fields of food production, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, environment, agriculture and public health research. The Department of Microbiology aims at using Microbial research as a tool for the benefit of mankind. To meet the challenges and impart theoretical as well as research oriented training to the master’s and doctoral students, department of microbiology was established under the umbrella of School of Interdisciplinary and Applied Life Sciences (SIAL) in 2015. M.Sc and Ph.D. program in microbiology encompasses a wide area of study, consisting of immunology, medical microbiology, microbial genetics, virology, Environmental Microbiology Soil & Agricultural Microbiology, Industrial Microbiology, Microbial Physiology and Metabolism. Research in our department seeks to meet challenges and provide information to us to eliminate pathogens, prevent newly emerging infectious diseases, and vaccine development. In addition, another thrust area of department is to provide renewable biofuels and/or bioenergy to mitigate global warming and depleting conserved petroleum resources. Our faculties are trained and have research expertise in different field of microbiology and are engaged in several research projects funded by various organizations such as UGC and DST. Most of our faculties have postdoctoral experiences from abroad and doing cutting edge research in microbiology. The microbiology department also trains Ph.D. and support postdoctoral students. The doctoral program in the department began in July 2016. The vision of our department is to become an internationally renowned and ideal department through highest teaching standards and performing quality research. The department also wishes to contribute towards the development of the nation by providing quality training to the aspiring researchers and scientists.
