Courses are designed to develop both conceptual knowledge and practical experience, providing a balanced mix of theory and hands-on learning.

• State-of-the-art research facilities for hands-on training (not mere demonstrations). Students will have the opportunity to operate high-end equipment and learn by doing.
• Internationally trained faculty members.
• Curriculum focused on developing skills that are in demand, such as experiment design, data analysis, and problem-solving.
• Innovative pedagogy including self-study, group discussions, quizzes, and field visits.
• Multiple capstone research projects under the guidance of faculty, working on real-world problems.
• Industry interactions.
• Greater emphasis on core biological courses such as molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry, and microbiology, to ensure in-depth understanding. This is often diluted in other programs, leading to a lack of fundamental knowledge of the subject.
• All core courses are designed to develop both conceptual knowledge and practical experience.
• Consequently, there is a greater emphasis on hands-on, experimental learning, with increased credits for practical sessions.
• Strong integration of bioinformatics and computational biology throughout the curriculum, which is essential for several industries.
• State-of-the-art research facilities, including high-end equipment and computational facilities for hands-on training (not mere demonstrations). Students will get the opportunity to operate high-end equipment and learn by doing.
• Internationally trained faculty members.
• Curriculum focused on developing skills that are in demand, such as experiment design, data analysis, and problem-solving.
• Innovative pedagogy including self-study, group discussions, quizzes, and field visits.
• Multiple capstone research projects under the guidance of faculty engaged in advanced research.
• Research projects integrated at various stages of the program, providing a comprehensive learning experience.
• Industry interactions

• Unique combination of major and minor subjects to provide broader career options to students, such as biotechnology with entrepreneurship, data science, or pharmaceutical chemistry.
• Professional core courses introducing students to emerging areas that are in high demand, such as synthetic biology, genetic engineering, entrepreneurship, and the application of AI/ML in biology.
• Unique set of open electives to develop deeper expertise in emerging areas and technologies such as biotechnology, bioprospecting, forensic science, computational biology, and drug discovery.
• One project focusing on new ideas and testing – students are encouraged to come up with new ideas.
• Option to complete one full-semester project or internship at an academic institution or industry.
• University foundation courses for holistic development.
• Research projects conducted over multiple semesters.
