Innovative Teaching Practices
Science is a study that engages in a “dialogue with Nature” to understand the principles and laws working in the natural world. The Faculty of Science is a place for Education and Research in science. The Faculty of Science has five core departments: Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Biotechnology and Microbiology. The presence of internationally recognized faculty backed by extremely knowledgeable staff and an effective administration will all contribute to the achievements of students to successfully establish them all over the world in upcoming years.
Departments with their specific high-end gadgets, instruments, and machine- Chemistry Department:Department of Chemistry at Krishna School of Science, Drs. Kiran & Pallavi Patel Global University (KPGU) offers B.Sc. programs in chemistry under Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). Department of Chemistry has state-of-the-art laboratory and classroom facilities, equipped with modern teaching and learning tools. Department of Chemistry have initiated a step towards VAC in order to make students learn Universal Human Values that will help the students to become a loyal and responsible citizen towards the nation. Apart from academics, other curricular and co-curricular activities are also organized by the department to create social awareness among students. For this, a NCC, NSS, Social Drive, Plastic-free campus program, Blood donation camp, Picnic to historical places, Field visits etc., are also organized.
- Physics Department: Bachelor of Science B.Sc. in Physics is undergraduate 3 years (six semesters) course that mainly focus on reasoning, understanding and improving skills of Physics. Physics involves the study of matter and energy. Physics as a subject covers study of the elementary particle to the universe behavioral study with space and time. The goal of physics is to understand how thing works. Department of Physics offers courses in Material Science, Quantum Physics, Nuclear Physics, Mathematical Physics, Space Physics, Electronics for undergraduate, for post graduate program (proposed), Material science is branch of science which deals with the discovery of new materials in the form of either solid or liquid. Material Science is an interdisciplinary branch. One can synthesize new materials in the laboratory and study their physical, chemical, biological properties under some special conditions. Such materials can be useful for next generation.
- Microbiology Department: Department of Microbiology at Krishna School of Science, Drs. Kiran & Pallavi Patel Global University (KPGU) offers B.Sc. programs in Microbiology under Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). Department of Microbiology has state-of-the-art laboratory and classroom facilities, equipped with modern teaching and learning tools. Department of Microbiology have initiated a step towards VAC in order to make students learn Universal Human Values that will help the students to become a loyal and responsible citizen towards the nation.
- Biotechnology Department: The Department of Biotechnology was recently established in 01st June 2020, and initially functioned in the University’s main campus at the Krishna school of Science, Drs. Kiran Patel & Pallavi Global University, Vadodara. The B.Sc. programme was initiated with the enrolment of 60 students each year under choice based credit system (CBCS). The Department provides ample scope to students and faculties for academics and research. Each faculty member manages and runs his/her laboratory independently where research is carried out in different areas of basic and applied Biotechnology. The faculty members have had national as well as international collaborations to develop mutually beneficial scientific interactions. This has also helped our laboratories to develop new technologies diversify our areas of research. The class size is kept large enough to provide a vibrant learning environment. The department of Biotechnology is well-equipped with modern laboratories to provide quality teaching and research opportunities for students. The department provide the consultancy to various leading industries related to food, pharmaceutical and agrochemicals sector. The Department has the facilities like UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, Laminar Air flow chamber, Cooling Centrifuge, Autoclave, Light microscope, Water Bath, Orbital Shaker Incubator, Bacteriological Incubator, UV-Trans illuminator, Hot Air Oven, Refrigerator, pH meter, Dry Bath, Weighing balance, Magnetic stirrer, Vortex and Gel electrophoresis apparatus etc.
- Mathematics Department:he Department of Mathematics at KPGU was established in year 2021.Initially it started with B.Sc. and have planning to establish for PG and Doctorate courses. Mathematics is a significant part of human logic and thoughts. The study of Mathematics encourages logical reasoning, critical thinking, creative thinking, abstract or spatial thinking, problem-solving ability, and even effective communication skills. The Department is established with aim to to provide a wide knowledge of Mathematics with good choice of subject areas. The design of this course is to give you an expertise in Mathematical Sciences and other Professional Courses students. The objective of our program is to cultivate a fine mathematical taste, nurture mathematical interests, motivate research in mathematical sciences and train computational scientists who can work on challenging real life problems.
