The Department is committed to fostering a vibrant academic environment that encourages curiosity, scientific thinking, research, and a deeper appreciation of the plant world and its vital role in sustaining life on Earth. Through quality teaching, practical learning, research activities, and co-curricular initiatives, we strive to equip our students with knowledge, skills, confidence, and a sense of responsibility towards society and the environment.

Our dedicated faculty members work collectively to nurture the potential of every student and to promote academic excellence, innovation, and ethical values. We also encourage our students to engage with contemporary areas of botanical science, environmental conservation, biodiversity, and sustainable development.

The Department believes that education is not merely the acquisition of knowledge, but a process of developing responsible, compassionate, and scientifically aware individuals who can contribute meaningfully to society.

I invite our students, faculty, researchers, alumni, and visitors to explore our website and learn more about the academic activities, achievements, research, and initiatives of the Department.

With warm regards,

Nusrath sayeed.

About Department

The Department of Botany was established in 1981 and has made significant progress in academics since then. The Department maintains a botanical garden which has a rich diversity of wild, economically and medicinally important plants. The Department has established a herbal garden and fluoriculture gardens in which many medicinal and aromatic plants are being cultivated.

The aim of the Department is to give the learners a sound understanding of Biosciences with emphasis on understanding the general aspects of plants and their importance. Further the Department aims to provide the platform for students to achieve excellence in academics.  The programme offered by the Department provides an opportunity to learners for higher studies not only in Botany but also in other branches like bioresources, biotechnology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, environmental science, phytochemistry, pharmacognosy, genetics, ecology, microbiology etc. Besides, the teaching-learning provided by the Department, also helps students to qualify competitive exams like NET, KAS and IAS. The programme includes themes in some of the emerging areas of Botany that are expected to be extremely useful in the present scenario.
