M.Sc is a two year course which is divided in the 4 equal semesters. In each semester students will have to study different subjects. In the 1st semester students will be taught on subjects like General Microbiology, Molecular Genetics, Biochemistry, Immunology & Medical Biotechnology, Microbiology, Molecular Genetics Lab, English and Computer Awareness. In the 2nd semester the syllabus will take students to more in-depth subjects which will include Cell and Molecular Biology, Industrial Biotechnology, Research Methodology, Instrumentations etc. In the 3rd semester it goes in to subjects like Recombinant DNA technology, Plant and Animal biotechnology, Pharmaceutical Biotechnology etc. And in the 4th semester the main subjects involved are Commercial Management of Biotechnology and the final project.
