The course addresses the English language needs of the students at the undergraduate level. The focus will be upon five categories: Prose, Poetry, Vocabulary, Soft Skills and Grammar. In addition to these, the last two units focus on developing the speaking skills of students. Overall the course will focus upon the critical thinking faculties of the students concerning academic, linguistic, political, literary and ethical concepts. The syllabus has been designed to develop the linguistic and communicative competence of undergraduate students. The teachers also ask comprehension questions to stimulate discussion and based on the discussions the students are made to write short paragraphs /essays and participate in group discussions.

Environmental science is an interdisciplinary academic field that integrates physics, biology, and geography (including ecology, chemistry, plant science, zoology, mineralogy, oceanography, limnology, soil science, geology and physical geography, and atmospheric science) to the study of the environment, and the solution of environmental problems. Environmental science emerged from the fields of natural history and medicine during the Enlightenment. Today it provides an integrated, quantitative, and interdisciplinary approach to the study of environmental systems.
Environmental studies incorporates more of the social sciences for understanding human relationships, perceptions and policies towards the environment. Environmental engineering focuses on design and technology for improving environmental quality in every aspect.

Cell Biology and Genetics provides us the introduction to the field of cell and basics of understanding the structure, functions, role of each organelle/ part, present in the different organisms. It provides us the basics of Genetics starting with the Mendel’s concept and laws and their derivation from these concepts which would help them to understand the concepts of molecular biology and other subjects related to Genetics. This provides us an idea regarding the Chromosomes and their features with various concepts and application of Genetics and biostatistics in Genetics to understand the evolution of this field.

Course Summary
The course links biology to medicine, mathematics and physics together, and earth sciences to the environment. Therefore, knowing the nature of chemicals and chemical processes gives insights into many different physical and biological phenomena. In this course the physico-chemical properties of organic and inorganic compounds is studied to build a base for understanding the universe around humans.
