Advanced Departmental Elective Courses
These courses provide students with specialized knowledge in their chosen fields and prepare them for advanced research or industry roles.
Quantum Computing
This course delves into the principles of quantum mechanics as applied to computing systems. Students learn about qubits, superposition, entanglement, and quantum algorithms such as Shor’s algorithm and Grover's search. The course includes practical sessions on quantum programming using platforms like Qiskit and Cirq.
Biostatistics
Biostatistics combines statistical methods with biological data analysis to solve problems in medicine, public health, and agriculture. Topics include experimental design, hypothesis testing, regression models, survival analysis, and Bayesian inference.
Neuroscience
This course explores the structure and function of the nervous system at cellular and molecular levels. It covers topics like neurotransmission, brain imaging techniques, cognitive neuroscience, and neurodegenerative diseases. Students also engage in hands-on experiments involving electrophysiology and neuroimaging.
Machine Learning
Students are introduced to supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms, neural networks, deep learning architectures, and reinforcement learning. The course emphasizes practical implementation using Python libraries like scikit-learn and TensorFlow.
Environmental Chemistry
This course examines chemical processes in the environment, focusing on pollutants, their fate, and remediation strategies. Students study topics like atmospheric chemistry, water pollution control, soil contamination, and green chemistry principles.
Advanced Mathematics
Building upon earlier mathematical foundations, this course covers complex analysis, differential equations, numerical methods, and optimization techniques. It prepares students for advanced studies in applied mathematics and theoretical physics.
Cell Signaling
Students explore the mechanisms of cellular communication through signaling pathways. Topics include receptor-ligand interactions, intracellular cascades, gene regulation, and applications in drug discovery and cancer biology.
Deep Learning
This course focuses on deep neural networks, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), transformers, and generative adversarial networks (GANs). Students implement models using PyTorch and TensorFlow while working on real-world datasets.
Blockchain Technology
Students learn about distributed ledger technology, cryptographic hashing, smart contracts, and decentralized applications. The course includes practical projects involving Ethereum development, tokenomics, and blockchain governance models.
Nanotechnology
This interdisciplinary course combines physics, chemistry, and engineering to explore materials at the nanoscale. Students study synthesis methods, characterization techniques, quantum confinement effects, and applications in electronics, medicine, and energy storage.
Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department believes that learning is most effective when it is contextualized through real-world problem-solving. Project-based learning (PBL) is integrated throughout the curriculum to encourage innovation, collaboration, and critical thinking.
Mini-projects are assigned during the second and third years, allowing students to apply theoretical concepts in practical settings. These projects are typically interdisciplinary, requiring students to work across multiple scientific domains. Each project is supervised by a faculty mentor who guides the team through research design, data collection, analysis, and presentation.
The final-year thesis or capstone project represents the culmination of the student's academic journey. Students select a topic relevant to their specialization and conduct independent research under close supervision. The project must demonstrate originality, depth, and relevance to current scientific challenges. It culminates in a formal presentation and written report submitted to the department.
Project selection is facilitated through a proposal process where students present their ideas to faculty members. Preference is given to projects that align with ongoing research initiatives or address pressing societal needs. The evaluation criteria include creativity, feasibility, impact, and adherence to scientific standards.
