The Department of Life Sciences a premier academic and research institute in the North Gujarat region. The department is multi disciplinary in nature offering Master Degree in Botany, Environmental Science and Microbiology along with PG Diploma in Medical Lab Technology
(MLT).
The Department was established in November 1998 to cater the need of the higher education in the field of science and technology. The department has the progressive journey with 15 students of Microbiology seating in temporary premises to the current strength of more than 100 students with in a state of art premises.
The Gujarat Government has awarded Center of Excellence in Environment and Sustainable Development (CEED) to the department.
Apart from the primary thrust of academics the department is vigorously involved in research. The department has completed many research projects and contributed with many research publications to the society of science
Our students have proved their academic potential with excellent examination results and good employment rate. Moreover, the immigration of many students to overseas for higher education and employment indicates our global acceptance.
