Sem 6 of B.Sc (Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Chemistry)

Course Summary

 The main objective of this course is that students will understand the scientific process, in the context of learning the fundamental biological and chemical facts of molecular biology.

It also describes the molecular and cellular basis of the development and function of the immune system in states of health and disease. The course will provide the required framework for more advanced courses in Immunology


The General English course English Express comes handy to cater to students’ needs who would embark on a new journey after their undergraduate studies. During the course of their last semesters, students get exposure to experiential learning, especially with live projects and campus interviews, and the English course prepares them to face these challenges. All the texts in the coursework are carefully picked to enable them to gain pragmatic experiences of life apart from exposing them to the apparent reflections of varied human societies and cultures. The texts also enable them to think critically and comprehend the implicit values they convey.

This course explores medicinal chemistry, covering drug classification, synthesis, and therapeutic applications. It introduces diseases, drug terminology, and the ADMET framework, emphasizing drug absorption, metabolism, and toxicity. Key topics include enzyme and receptor mechanisms, structure-activity relationships, and the synthesis of essential drugs like chemotherapeutics and anesthetics. The role of molecular messengers, vitamins, and micronutrients in health is also discussed, providing a strong foundation in pharmacology and therapeutic science.


Environmental biotechnology is a field that applies biological processes and organisms 

to address and resolve environmental challenges. It focuses on using living systems to 

manage waste, control pollution, and promote sustainable development.
