M. Sc. Entrepreneurship
- Total Intake: 24
- Duration: 2 Years (4 Semesters)
Introduction: The syllabi till today had been sufficient to cater for the needs of students for building up their careers in industry. However, with the changing scenario at local and global level, we feel that the syllabus orientation should be altered to keep pace with developments in the industrial sectors. The need of the hour is proper syllabi that emphasize on teaching the technological as well as the administrative aspects. . Theory supplemented with extensive laboratory expertise will help these students, to avail these opportunities. Both these aspects i.e. theory and more of practical needs to stressed, such that a post-graduate student can start work directly in applied fields like-industry without any additional training. Thus, the university / college itself will be developing the trained and skilled man-power. We will find the trained teachers who can share their experiences on different aspects in microbiology, biotechnology and chemistry and we plan to restructure the syllabus in this viewpoint. The restructured syllabus will combine the principles of chemistry and biological sciences with technological disciplines to produce goods and services with proper management. Entrepreneurship curricula are operated at two levels viz. undergraduate and postgraduate. The undergraduate curricula are prepared to impart basic knowledge of the respective subject from all possible angles. The institute will raise the Entrepreneurship Park for the students admitted.
Eligibility
- The candidate should be an Indian National.
- B. Sc. with Principle subject like- Entrepreneurship, Chemistry, Biotechnology, Agriculture, Agriculture Biotechnology, Botany, Zoology, Microbiology, Bioinformatics, Biochemistry, B. Pharmacy, Agri Business Management and Plant protection.
Certificate Courses
- Total Intake: 24
- Duration: 2 Years (4 Semesters)
Introduction Plants have been conventionally propagated by seed and vegetative methods. Seeds are generally heterozygous and cause undesirable variability in the off-springs. Moreover, methods of vegetative propagation are not available for all the plant species. Further, these methods, wherever available, are slow and able to produce a limited number of propagules. Plant Tissue Culture has become an important alternative where any plant species can be cloned and a large number of genetically uniform disease-free plants can be obtained within a short period of time. The technique enables production of plants in a small laboratory space round the year, independent of the season. The controlled physico-chemical culture environment ensures uniform growth and optimum field performance of the plants. The technique has been widely applied for large-scale production of quality plants including fruit plants, ornamentals, plantation crops, tree species, spices and condiments. The demand for tissue culture derived plants has been growing exponentially across the globe. A large number of tissue culture based industries have been engaged in commercial production of selected plant species in India and abroad. There is a huge demand for trained manpower in this sector. The course being offered will train manpower suited to the needs of the industry so that the trained personnel become employable. In addition, the course will also provide advanced training to become an entrepreneur in the said area.

Program Outcomes
Overall scenario of student trends in selecting courses for studies is very typical. Most of the science students tend to choose the professional courses, particularly leading to studies in Medical sciences and Engineering and relatively less number of students opt for degrees in Biosciences. For several years now, the first preference of students desiring to enter the field of Life Sciences particularly, Microbiology, Botany, Zoology, and for last 5 to 6 years, it has shifted partly to Biotechnology course. This trend has been followed by chemical sciences. Both these disciplines viz. Microbiology and Biotechnology deal with overlapping interests. Microbial sciences focus more on study of the microbial world while Biotechnology focuses more on industrial applications relating to plants and animals. The main theme of teaching these courses, however, remains the same i.e. application of basic principles of Life Science to develop into technology. Modern biology combines the principles of chemistry and biological sciences (molecular and cellular biology, genetics, and immunology) with technological disciplines (engineering, computer science) to produce goods and services and even for environmental management. The M. Sc.Entrepreneurship course is aimed to develop the industry based science curriculum in the various subjects like industrial Microbiology, Industrial Chemistry and Industrial Biotechnology with the syllabus of Commerce and management subjects which could help to develop the Science entrepreneurs. The Board of Studies in Entrepreneurship has identified the following thrust areas and prospective plans for syllabi reforms at postgraduate level:
Industrial Microbiology –
Includes application of bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses in traditional (food, dairy, wine, antibiotics, fermentation, etc.) and biotechnological industries.
