About The Department
Established in 2001, the Department of Biotechnology at Prathyusha Engineering College began enrolling B.Tech., students in 2002 and M. Tech., students in 2019. It launched Research Programs (M.S. by Research and Ph.D.) in 2024. The department was approved by AICTE (732-52-394, EYET/2001 dated: 30.08.2001) and permanently affiliated to Anna University (Lr.No:467/CAI/Permanent Affln./2014-15 dt.18.11.14) and accredited with National Board of Accreditation (NBA), New Delhi till 2026. In response to the evolving landscape of innovative technology and advances in science and medicine, the biotechnology program is designed to prepare students for successful careers in the field. To achieve this, the curriculum encompasses a range of subjects in science and engineering. The department emphasizes interdisciplinary, lab-based learning, strong industry-institute collaboration, internships, and research activities, all aligned with its Undergraduate and Postgraduate programs.
The department features state-of-the-art laboratories and modern facilities, including an Animal House approved by Committee for Control and Supervision of Experiments on Animals (CCSEA), Ministry of Environment and Forests, Government of India, which supports both academic and research initiatives. Faculty members, experts from various Biotechnology specializations, are committed to academic excellence and innovation. They demonstrate unwavering dedication by engaging in continuous professional development through faculty training programs and national symposiums. Research findings from the department are regularly published in peer-reviewed SCI journals, amassing over 1,500 citations. Additionally, the department has secured substantial funding from esteemed government agencies such as AICTE, DBT, and TNSCST, further enhancing its research capabilities and contributions to the field of Biotechnology.

Programme Specific Objectives (PSO’s)
The program specific objective of the four year Bachelor of Technology degree program in biotechnology targets the students to learn and to get training in the domains if their interest in biotechnology to come out as successful person in their career. The central dogma of PSO includes “INVENTION, INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP”
PSO1: The prime PSO is to endow the students to have a deeper insights in the Fundamentals of Biotechnology topics and to acquaint them with various upcoming and challenging areas relevant to biotech industry and research and development sectors.
PSO2: The intensive training to be imparted in the promising areas like r-DNA technology, in-silico technology, industrial biotechnology, Food and health care technology, biochemical and gene manipulation technology, Bioprocess technology and immune-therapeutic technology through practicals, mini and major projects, industrial training will help the students to conceive an idea for their successful career after course completion.
PSO3: The programme is further specific enable the student to become biotech innovators, technocrats, entrepreneurs or researchers one or more field of the choice and how to scale up their innovative intellectual property/skill to get a final product/lifelong achievement.
PSO3: The eye opening lectures and practical will help the motivated students to pursue higher education in the biotech branch of the choice in India or abroad in reputed institutions.
