About Department
Biotechnology, an applied stream of ‘Life Sciences’, is forefront of innovation, blending science and technology into products and services that have a positive impact on people, animals, and the environment. Certain communal examples of biotechnology include tests for COVID-19, pregnancy tests, antibiotics, biofuels, drought-tolerant crops, and genetic (DNA) testing. There are several branches of biotechnology, including but not limited to:
- Agricultural Biotechnology
- Plant Biotechnology
- Food Biotechnology
- Animal Biotechnology
- Medical Biotechnology & Biomedical Instrumentation
- Industrial Biotechnology
- Environmental Biotechnology
- Agricultural Biotechnology
- Plant Biotechnology
- Food Biotechnology
- Animal Biotechnology
- Medical Biotechnology & Biomedical Instrumentation
- Industrial Biotechnology
In fact, Biotechnology focuses on the application of the biological sciences, biochemistry, and genetics to the preparation of new and enhanced agricultural, environmental, clinical, and industrial and food products, including the commercial exploitation of microbes, plants, and animals.
Nevertheless, modern biotechnology practices techniques concerning with synthetic biology, oncology, stem cell biology, protein engineering and genetic engineering towards the development of potential vaccines, combating against diabetes, cancer, hypertension, various genetic disorders animals including human and potentially serving the community in terms facilitating nutraceutical worthwhile designed foods and generic medicines. As far as IVF is concerned, it is the result of genetic engineering, and is benefitting them who are suffering from reproductive and genetic disorders. This is now-a-days actively in practice for human and veterinary field. Biotechnology also reveals Forensic applications.
Conclusively, Biotechnology stream is a very diverse field. Constant research and development are helping give superior varieties of multiple organisms and systems of societal interest.

Welcome to the Department of Biotechnology at SR Institute of Management & Technology, Lucknow. I as a head thank you for giving preference to the Department of Biotechnology for determining and elevating your undergraduate learning and professional career in Biotechnology. Abstractly Biotechnology is a multidisciplinary science and technology advancing by more applications in our day-to-day lives from pharmaceutical/medical development to food production and the treatment of polluting waste. Biotechnology is being integrated with several disciplines of human welfare and biotechnological innovations are already integral part of our daily lives and we observe that in pharmacies, agriculture, food, markets, and among many other places. Besides, in recent months, biotechnology has become one of the spearheads in the fight against the COVID-19 global pandemic, as it aids to decipher the virus’ genome and understand how our body’s defence mechanism works against infectious agents. Like the stripes of the rainbow, the diverse biotechnology applications are grouped into seven colors or research and development areas as Red, Green, White, Yellow, Blue, Gray and Gold Biotechnology. Biotechnology will therefore play a central role in the society of the future in preventing and containing potential pathogens. Uttar Pradesh Council of Science & Technology (UPCST) and Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Government of India has extremely motivating the Biotechnology research and developmental activities through several research and development projects, demonstrations, innovation, entrepreneurship or start-up grants, and the creation of infrastructural facilities. We sincerely feel that we may add values to student’s life that perhaps will equip them to get out of the adversities in their life. I hope the students will have a comfortable stay and joyful learning experience at the Department of Biotechnology of SRIMT, Lucknow and establish the precision of their decision. Thanks to them again.
