About

The Department of Biomedical Science has all the infrastructure and environment to support the multifaceted development of students. The course emphasizes relating knowledge to practical scientific research. Students are encouraged to gather as much laboratory experience as possible, by undertaking summer projects/internships in research laboratories and industries.

The laboratories of the department are well equipped with instruments such as UV-Visible spectrophotometers, thermal cyclers, gel documentation system, biosafety cabinets, refrigerated high speed centrifuges, orbital shaker incubator, microtome, UV transilluminator, microplate ELISA reader, digital colony counter, digital viscometer, melting point apparatus, binocular microscopes with camera and projection system as well as other instruments including electronic balances, autoclave, colorimeters, vertical and horizontal electrophoresis units, electro-blotting system, laminar hood, magnetic stirrers, vortex shakers, ice flaking machine, ovens, etc. In short, the department has all facilities to help students gather practical skills.

Department of Biomedical Science is one of the few departments that have been awarded the Star status by the Department of Biotechnology. This award facilitates the department in conducting new experiments, short research projects/ activities, lecture series and many such activities. Workshops, hands-on-trainings, invited lectures and conferences are a regular feature of every academic year.
