The Department of Life Sciences is a unique department in the University where multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary teaching and research in life sciences have established permanent roots. It is a diverse discipline that covers all branches of Biotechnology, Botany, Zoology and Forensic Science in a dominant manner. This is one of the oldest departments of CHRIST (Deemed to be University), (formerly Christ College) started from the inception of the Institution in 1969. This serves as a valuable foundation to many students for understanding cellular and molecular level organization in living beings.
The uniqueness of the department essentially lies in the fact that within its faculty members, there are experts and active researchers representing almost all areas of modern biology as well as forensic science. It strives to promote all round development of students by inculcating a spirit of quest, discipline and adventure through various academic and co-curricular activities. Apart from the syllabus, the department emphasizes on Value Addition Programs like Current Affairs, Holistic Education, Skill Development as well as Multidisciplinary Courses and Placement Training Programs, which include training students in group discussions, facing interviews and so on.

This serves as a valuable foundation to many students for understanding cellular and molecular level organization in living beings. Since the syllabus is on par with those of reputed Indian and International Universities, students and research scholars get a highly competitive edge and would be competent for jobs in industries in the domains of pharmaceuticals, dairy, clinical research etc.
The Department has state of the art infrastructural facilities, including modern sophisticated instruments, research lab, well equipped library, access to online journals, aquaculture facility, applied and industrial biotechnology laboratory, pharmaceutical chemistry laboratory, green house and computational facilities for carrying out multidisciplinary research in frontier areas of Life science.
The core biology subjects like Cytology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Molecular biology, Genetics and specialized courses like Disease biology, Plant biotechnology, Animal Biotechnology, Genetic Engineering, Analytical Techniques, Plant Tissue Culture and Phytochemistry, question documents, forensic ballistics, crime scene management, Forensic Anthropology, Forensic Psychology, that would make students acquire skills in doing research in Universities, R&D Centres, Forensic Laboratories etc.
VisionTo uphold the core values of the university and to build up a “Life Science Community,” for the betterment of humanity with their knowledge, ethics and entrepreneurship.
MissionThe Department of Life Sciences strives to promote all round development of students by inculcating a spirit of quest, discipline and adventure through various academic, co-curricular & extra-curricular activities and prepare them to face the challenges by being a person with a difference.

"I completed my undergraduate degree, BSc BCZ at Christ University in 2014. I believe that the curriculum for a Bachelor's, especially in Biotechnology, was very rigorous and thorough, covering a wide range of topics that are relevant for a career in science. The professors in the department were highly supportive and in particular, Dr. Suma ma'am, has encouraged me up until now to continue pursuing a research career and keep the curiosity going! Ever since I graduated, I have been invited to give talks at the Biotechnology Dept several times, and this has given me a great opportunity to interact with the next generation of students and alumni who aspire to do science and research."
