Profile
|
|
A young and dynamic department supported
by four experts from different fields- Molecular Biology,
Tissue Culture, Medical Microbiology and Biochemistry. Our
First batch of T.Y.s appeared for the University Exams in
2005, Second in 2006 and Third batch has just completed their
exams. Since 2005, Thanks to the management, we have a well-equipped
Tissue Culture Laboratory and we are now getting set to apply
for a Research Project. In the new academic year, we will
be holding a workshop in Bioinformatics by Dr. Gunjan Mukerji.
We generally get the toppers of the 12th Std. who are full
of enthusiasm, both academically and in extra-curricular activities.
Our students achieved and continue to achieve great laurels
in their further ventures. We have a record of students who
are university rankers as well and have excelled abroad in
the higher education. They are others who have been selected
in the topmost universities within India as well. Other students
have chosen fields varied from call centers to flying to clinical
research to pharmaceutical management as their career options.
