Biotechnology is often used to refer to genetic engineering technology of the 21st century. However the term encompasses a wider range and history of procedures for modifying biological organisms according to the needs of humanity, going back to the initial modifications of native plants into improved food crops through artificial selection and hybridization. Bioengineering is the science upon which all biotechnological applications are based. With the development of new approaches and modern techniques, traditional biotechnology industries are also acquiring new horizons enabling them to improve the quality of their products and increase the productivity of their systems. The Biotechnology department was incepted in 2002 with UG courses. In these 13 years of academic services, the department has grown up steadily, and at present the department hosts four autonomous programmes, under the affiliation of Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belgaum. The courses are designed to give theoretical and practical skills essential for a career in Biotechnology within the companies and research organizations. The courses are delivered through lectures (from highly qualified and dedicated staff who are experienced in and outside the country, and from eminent scientists from various institutions), laboratory classes, demonstrations, project work and workshops.
