Life Sciences

“I completed my undergraduate degree, BSc BCZ at Christ University in 2014. I believe that the curriculum for a Bachelor’s, especially in Biotechnology, was very rigorous and thorough, covering a wide range of topics that are relevant for a career in science. The professors in the department were highly supportive and in particular, Dr. Suma ma’am, has encouraged me up until now to continue pursuing a research career and keep the curiosity going! Ever since I graduated, I have been invited to give talks at the Biotechnology Dept several times, and this has given me a great opportunity to interact with the next generation of students and alumni who aspire to do science and research.”

Being a student of the first batch of MSc Biotechnology in CHRIST (Deemed to be University) was an unforgettable journey. Constant support from my Lecturers for academics and personal development has shaped my learning experience. I will be eternally indebted for the University for enabling us to be full fledged professionals.

The Department of Life Sciences provided me with a strong academic foundation that has further supported my research work. Using skills that I developed in our practical sessions, I have been able to gather the basic techniques required for a research-based career in the biological sciences. I am immensely grateful for the faculty who ensured that I performed experiments with the utmost care and attention to detail, while enriching my experience with extracurricular activities, fests and leadership opportunities. It is the culmination of extensive theoretical knowledge, dedicated laboratory time and overall holistic development in the Department of Life Sciences that has gotten me to where I am today.

My two years of Masters at Christ (deemed to be University) made me improve a lot on my inter and intrapersonal skills. The department of life sciences, with all its facilities and well experienced faculties have put in all efforts to groom me as a result of which I am now pursuing PhD in an eminent institute with a national fellowship. The department has to be appreciated for shaping the syllabus in a such a way as to be able to crack the national level exams. I am happy and proud to be a Christite.

As a student in the Life Sciences department at Christ, I gained both the technical expertise and confidence to approach inter-disciplinary research with immense curiosity. The instructors in each course were skilled, patient and offered individualized attention to students. I was so impressed with the emphasis on overall growth and I am thankful to have been a part of this program. I have learned so much that I’m able to apply across multiple disciplines of my work.
