The four-year
B.Sc. in Biotechnology, aligned with the NEP 2020, is a multidisciplinary and research-oriented undergraduate program designed to build strong foundations in biological sciences and biotechnology. It emphasizes conceptual understanding, skill development, and innovation through a flexible and holistic curriculum. The program includes core subjects such as cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, microbiology, biochemistry, and genetic engineering, along with interdisciplinary courses in bioinformatics, biostatistics, and computer applications.
The NEP-aligned structure provides multiple exit options: a Certificate after 1 year, a Diploma after 2 years, a B.Sc. degree after 3 years, and a B.Sc. (Hons.) after 4 years with a mandatory research component or project work in the final year. Emphasis is placed on hands-on training, internships, and project-based learning to enhance employability and prepare students for higher education or careers in biotechnology, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and research sectors.
The program also incorporates skill enhancement, value-based education, ethics, communication skills, and entrepreneurship, fostering holistic development. Implemented under the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) and Academic Bank of Credits (ABC), this course structure ensures flexibility and lifelong learning, empowering students with scientific acumen, critical thinking, and readiness for the biotech-driven future.
