In the Department of Microbiology, there are two courses one is a Graduate Course program in Medical Microbiology and a Post Graduate course program in M.Sc. Microbiology.
Microbiology is a very advanced and latest form of educational subject in which students learn about the various forms of bacteria. The course includes a study of various kinds of microorganism and their life cycle. The subject deals with the life and other metabolic activities of the microorganisms. Microorganisms are ubiquitous and represent the most extensive category of living organisms on the planet. Our survival, well-being, nutrition, agricultural practices, and even industrial progress are significantly reliant on their presence. If microbes were to become extinct, disaster would become inevitable and would be beyond imagination. Unknowingly, man has made use of micro-organisms since prehistoric times, mostly in the production of food and drinks, such as the leavening of bread, souring of milk, and making of wine and beer, etc. However, it was only in the seventeenth century that the microbial world was discovered.
