Research Activities
: The major objective of higher education is to create or add to existing fund of knowledge. Research education is more than a continuation of University-level studies. At its best, research education is an apprenticeship - a student develops capacity of independent research by working closely with scholars, whose work can serve as a model. Achieving this, requires more than completing courses, accumulating grades and passing prescribed examinations.

To motivate the students for research in our institutions, the science departments provide adequate opportunities for those who have research aptitude. The laboratories in Microbiology and Biotechnology are provided with sophisticated equipment. The students are allowed to choose their research area. The University has been approved by UGC to facilitate the flow of fund for research projects.
