It is my privilege to introduce the Postgraduate Department of Biotechnology at the University of Kashmir. Established in 2000, the department has emerged as a center of academic and research excellence, recognized among the leading biotechnology institutes in the country. This achievement reflects the expertise, dedication, and teamwork of our faculty, all of whom have been trained at premier institutions across the globe. Our Alumni are placed both nationally and internationally, and are contributing to the welfare of mankind.
The department is committed to high-quality postgraduate teaching/training and doctoral research. The postgraduate program (PG) program is supported by the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), GOI; Admission to the PG program is based on the national-level Graduate Aptitude Test in Biotechnology (GAT-B) managed by Regional Centre for Biotechnology, GOI, ensuring the selection of meritorious students from across the country [ https://rcb.res.in/DBTPG/ ], and as of now the selected students receive a monthly stipend of ₹5000 from DBT, GOI.
We encourage our students to remain innovative, dedicated, and forward-thinking as they contribute to scientific progress and societal development. It is an honor to lead such a committed and accomplished department.
