About the Department
Biotechnology is a conference of divergent disciplines, technologies and ideas to commemorate man’s successful survival on this
planet. It is one of the most research intensive industries in the world. Taking an early note of the usefulness of the subject, the
management of SUS group of Institutions established the Biotechnology department with the objective of doing state of the art
research and development and training of human resource in this emerging frontier of science. The department is well equipped
to hone the practical skills of students to meet the ever-changing demands of the Biotech industry. A very competent and
dedicated faculty makes all out efforts to facilitate the quest of students to appreciate and assimilate the latest trends in the
various aspects of this multidisciplinary subject. All this along with high-tech labs places us amongst the Best Biotech schools in
India.
The Biotechnology covers different fields of work like agriculture, disease research, eco-conservation, fertilizers,
vaccines, energy production and animal husbandry. Placement offers to the students have always shown an ever
increasing trend and promise to be the best in future with the incoming boom of Power sector. Students with bio
technology degrees can work as laboratory technicians in various research centres, hospitals, healthcare centres,
and universities. The rise in the production of genetically modified crops has increased the demands in
the market. This has increased the scope of employment for student pursuing Biotechnology.
