Research is the basic requirement of any good educational institution, where both the students and teachers (researchers) see the science in its real sense. The department has launched postgraduate study program as well. At the initial phase we have started M. Phil Program but in near future we have also planned to launch Ph.D. program. Our department is in the initial stages of development and needs to be in collaboration with relatively more developed institutions of the country. To meet the present day challenges, interdisciplinary integration with other professions is necessary.
