Faculty of Biochemistry (SVU)
DEPARTMENT OF BIOCHEMISTRY
(UGC NSAP and DST-FIST Sponsored)
SRI VENKATESWARA UNIVERSITY, TIRUPATI – 517 502 (A.P)
Tel: 0877-2289495
The Department of Biochemistry was started in 1978 to fulfill the demand and needs of the student community in general and of the Rayalaseema region in particular. The department has an independent building with a span of 12000 sft in two floors. The department has celebrated its silver jubilee in 2003. To its credit, the department started M.Pharmacy in 2006 and M.Sc. Immunotechnology in 2008. The course content is designed to cover all aspects of Biochemistry and practical orientation for biochemical methods. Further, to strengthen the above, project work was introduced in the curriculum. The exhaustive training in biochemical methods and sound theoretical background is intended to make the student an appropriate candidate to not only take up either teaching or pursuing doctoral research but also competent enough to work in pharmaceutical R&D and diagnostic labs, agricultural research institutions, and various medical and allied institutions and industries. The department has experienced and dedicated faculty members who are actively involved in various research projects. The department also invites accomplished professors /scientists from various prestigious institutions to deliver special lectures in order to encourage and motivate the students to take up research programme. The students who have successfully completed the M.Sc., course have been working in India and abroad in various capacities in research institutions, biotech industries and universities.
