Learning is not the product of teaching. Learning is the product of the activity of Learners - John Holt
Department of Microbiology has always been in the forefront to provide career counselling to its students. Be it one-to-one interaction, industrial visits or career talks through well placed alumni and contacts. Through the Microbiology-Biotechnology Association various career talks have been planned in the past. We are fortunate to have tremendous support of our alumni who share their experiences with us and our students to help them ponder upon the best filed suited to their interest and passion. Continuing this spirit, the department planned its first online career session through SCOPE. We plan to have this activity once a month. Do suggest us which field you are interested to know more about and we will try and keep them for you.
Finally we believe that SCOPE IS WHAT YOU CREATE... and hence be passionate about what you like, work hard and enjoy the journey to your success.
