The quest for practical knowledge is bridged by an array of subject experts that are carefully selected from across the globe and the industry. The School has endorsements from various associations such as The Indian Science Congress Association, Mycological Society of India, International Solid Waste Association, Association of Food Scientist and Technologist, Association of Biotechnology Led Enterprises, The Bio-tech Research Society - India, to name a few.

With top recruiters from the industry such as BIOCON, Syngene, Reliance Life Sciences, Cognizant, Indegene, Jubilant Biosys, Thermo Fisher, Agilent, Quintiles, Cipla, Dr Reddy’s Lab, Ranbaxy, Glaxo Smith Kline, Novartis, British Biologicals, Monsanto, Merck Millipore, Indo-American Hybrid Seeds, Nestle, Agro-Parle etc., the students start their career with the finest of the companies present in the country and abroad. Currently, the School’s target is towards mobilizing highly competitive research and extension project grants from various agencies. This is done with the sole purpose of making a GCU graduate, industry-ready and facilitating a smooth transition from Campus to Corporate.

The School’s aim in the near future is to be a hub for leading research-oriented organizations and start-ups, who could avail the expertise and services from our laboratories and Nano-Technology Center. This would allow the School to function as an eco-system for the corporates and the students, wherein both the parties are benefitted mutually.

Upon completion of the program, students can opt for career choices as a quality control analyst, clinical research, DNA – Fingerprinting, Medical Coding, Pharmaceuticals, Distilleries, Bio-Informatics Technician, Bio-remediation technologies, Epidemiologist, Junior Research Fellow, Laboratory Technicians, Immunologist, Medical Microbiologist etc.
