As Life Science is a broad term that incorporates various fields of science involving the scientific studies of living organisms like plants, animals and human beings, offers plenty of employment opportunities. With the increase in the public awareness regarding life science there is tremendous scope for research and development in this field. Growing demand of proficiency in life sciences has triggered the idea to initiate the RG. Course in Kota University (Rajasthan) in year 2008. The department was established under the self financing scheme of the University. Eminent professors of life science and scientists are invited to deliver lectures and to interact with the students. The department is making efforts to provide training to the students in computer aptitude and research methodology. Project reports are prepared by the students on current environmental issues. The department organizes visits of students to Industries/Dams/Sanctuaries/National Parks etc. Many other curricular activities including seminar, workshops and awareness camps are regularly organized by the department.
