Department of Biological Sciences
“From Textbook Biology to Career-Ready Skills – Empowering Botany and Zoology Graduates for Real-World Impact.”
Introduction
The Department of Biological Sciences at Aspire Tech Park is exclusively designed for students from Botany and Zoology backgrounds. Unlike conventional biology programs, this department focuses on bridging subject knowledge with practical skills required in modern research, teaching, environmental science, agriculture, and healthcare support industries.
Our goal is to upskill students from traditional B.Sc. Biological Sciences courses, who often miss exposure to tools, data handling, and applications, by offering curated programs that are hands-on, affordable, and job-relevant. This department does not cover Molecular Biology or Biotechnology, which are addressed separately through dedicated programs.
Currently Active
Foundational webinars and internships focused on ecological, botanical, and zoological skillsets and plant-based product research are available.
Courses Under Validation
Workshops in floristic documentation, faunal surveys, biodiversity mapping, and are being developed.
