SGM College Patan

- Welcome to Department of Microbiology -


...

Microbiology is a basic and applied science having implication in various aspect of human welfare like medicine, agriculture biotech fermentation industries and bioinformatics. Microorganisms are basic tools in the field of applied industrial and research. Students occurring microbiology as a subject can choose industrial, academic and research carrier. They can study all applied and allied branches of microbiology and make career as microbiologist.


...

Our mission is to produce skilled graduates who can choose microbiology as research or academic career. We also aim to produce industrial microbiologist for various industries which are producing microbiological or biotechnological products


...

  • To identify and engage this student with industrial microbiology
  • To identify and implement strategy for research and innovation
  • To identify possible collaborators with industry and Innovator Partner
  • To work with the research councils and other institution for opportunities for research, innovation on doctoral training
  • To promote microbiology to the public through public engagement activity
