Master of Technology [M.Tech] (Biotechnology) Syllabus, Course Structure and Program Schedule 2025-2026

Course Structure

The course structure of M. Tech. Biotechnology is designed in a way which educate students about the various biomolecules at structural and functional level helping students tackle technical and biological problems in the processes.

The delivery method of the course involves classroom lectures, guest lectures from qualified professionals, internships, industrial visits and research thesis.

Each student is allotted a project work in the beginning of 3^rd semester and it shall be pursued through 3^rd and 4^th semester. Project work will be evaluated through presentation/seminar.

Students have to submit their dissertation at the end of 4^th semester. Evaluation of dissertation will be done by presentation.
