About Department

Brief History of Department

The department of M.Sc. Microbiology was started from the academic year 2005-06 in Ayurvedic college campus, Tuljapur road, at sub-campus Dharashiv on grant basis. The department is now shifted in new science building in MIDC area Dharashiv. Presently 20 granted and 20 non-grant seats are available for M. Sc. Microbiology Admission. The department is having sophisticated instruments and well equipped laboratories required in the field of Microbiology. The Department is not only working academically but also performing many Co-Curricular and extension activities useful for the students and society. The department has introduced NEP -2020 syllabus from the academic year 2023 to cater the need of skill based education. Many students are pursuing their Ph. D. degree in the department.

Vision
  • To provide quality education and training in Microbiology, fostering innovation, excellence, and cutting-edge research in the field, while producing skilled professionals who contribute to advancements in healthcare and environmental sustainability. Make them enable to contribute to science in general and nation economy in particular.
  • Research activities in the department would be strengthened. For this, the department is planning to emphasis on research activities with the support from the head of the university. The faculty members will undertake Minor/Major research projects with financial assistance from UGC, DBT, DST and other funding agencies. For this, we would make the maximum use of research activities. The department is planning to sign MoUs with Indian Universities/Institutions to establish cooperation in the areas of teaching, research and training.
Mission
  • To impart knowledge and microbiology skill for making student ready for future,
  • To develop the attitude of analytical thinking in students through various activities throughout the programme, such as seminar, group discussion, blended learning, research projects and practical.
  • To provide a comprehensive and rigorous education in Microbiology, equipping students with a deep understanding of microbial life, its interactions, and applications. Through state-of-the-art research, interdisciplinary collaborations, and experiential learning, to cultivate a community of scientists capable of addressing global challenges, promoting scientific discovery, and improving the quality of life through microbiological advancements.
Core values of the Departments
  • To develop skill based students through teaching –learning and research activity.
  • To develop collaboration with institute and industries.
  • To become an advanced center of microbiology and to serve the society.

The Minor project entitled “Studies on textile dye decolouration by Streptomyces species” was sanctioned to Dr. R. M. Khobragade by UGC (Rs.1.65 lakhs) and completed in the year 2010-12.

University projects were sanctioned and completed successfully by Dr. R. M. Khobragade and Dr. P. P. Dixit (Rs. 0.30 lakhs). The Agricultural Technology Management Agency (ATMA), D.R.D.A., Z.P., Osmanabad, has provided grants of Rs. 1,50,000/- for a project entitled “Effect of Biofertilizers on crop yields” to promote organic farming.

The thrust area of research is textile dye decolorization, Enzymes, and Biomolecules from microorganisms.

Research Interests:
Faculties are actively involved in research activities. They have a keen interest in working in the field of enzymology, protein chemistry, the diversity of microorganisms, isolation, purification and characterization of compounds obtained from microbial origin, exploring the microbial world for the products of human welfare, and environmental pollution-related problems.
