Bio - Technology is not a discipline by itself. It is an interdisciplinary science that comprises not only Biology but also subjects like Molecular Physics, Chemistry and Engineering. It is a conglomerate of various combined technologies applied to living cells for production of a particular product for enhancing its quality according to our preferences., an integrated approach applying knowledge and techniques drawn from Biochemistry, Microbiology, Genetics and Chemical Engineering to tackle problems in life sciences that cannot be handled through conventional methods.

1. What are the Courses that can be studied under Biotechnology?
    There are mainly two branches that are taught in every biotechnology course. One is Core biotechnology where students can know everything about the genetic engineering and microbiology subjects. The other part of Biotechnology is Bio informatics. This is based on computers. So, students can solve problems using computers. The applications can be constructed faster with the use of a computer by the biotechnology professionals.
