 Mission & Vision
Department of Dairy Microbiology was started right at the beginning of
the erstwhile college of Dairy Science in the year 1979, and the name
has been changed to Department of Dairy and Food Microbiology. The role of microorganism
in the manufacture of Fermented Milks & other Products or
causing spoilage in the milk and milk products is well known. Microorganisms are ubiquitous and therefore can’t be neglected.
Emphasis has therefore been given to courses related to
Dairy & Food Microbiology.
Goals
With this ambition, the department of Dairy & Food Microbiology
offer
13 courses to both Dairy Tech. and Food Tech. at U.G. level. One
course on Biotechnology (Dairy & Food) has also been included for
Providing knowledge to the students in the area of Biotechnology. Besides
advance courses in Dairy & Food Microbiology at P.G. level(M. Sc.,
Ph.D.) are likely to be approved by the University and subsequently the P.G. programs will be started in the subject in the coming years.
Short Courses proposals have been prepared to provide
adequate technical knowledge are to be started about the recent techniques to the in
service personnel working in the field of quality assurance.
