BOTANY DEPARTMENT

Information

About Department

The department of Botany was established in 1993 along with other science departments with B.Sc. Programme. The main aim of the department is to impart knowledge of plant science among the students. Laboratories are well equipped. Department is rich in study materials like books, museum specimens, charts, permanent slides, etc. The department has been recognized by DBT under star college scheme.


Vision

"To inculcate nature care by imparting knowledge of advance modern techniques for sustainable development"


Mission

"To educate and inspire students through our expertise and enriched laboratory for dissemination of knowledge at field level"


Objective

  1. To explore the plant diversity and create awareness about the biodiversity conservation
  2. To develop the aptitude towards plant science among the students
  3. A holistic development of students by ensuring the participation of maximum students in co-curricular & extra-curricular activities.

Botanical Garden

A college is having a small botanical garden in the premises which enhances the beauty of campus. The garden is a centre of attraction because of its beautiful layout and collection of different plants like medicinal, aromatic, ornamental, cacti, succulent and aquatics. Plants are well labeled with their botanical and common (in marathi) names. Beside this some habitats have developed in the garden, including shade house, pond for aquatics, sand bed for cacti and small fernery. The plants are arranged in a garden according their groups such as medicinal, aromatic, succulent, flowering, foliage etc. Along with angiosperms, ferns and gymnosperms are also blooming in the garden. The fresh plant material needed for practicals are also cultivated in the garden.

Zamia sp., Thuja biota, Cycas sp., Araucaria sp., and Cyperus sp. are some notable taxa in gymnosperms. The important medicinal plant growing in garden are Andrographis paniculata (kiryata), Bixa orellana (Sendari), Saraca asoca (Sita Ashok), Costus pictus, Adathoda vasica (Adulsa), Centella asiatica (Bramhi), Eclipta alba (Bramhi), Ocimum sanctum, etc. Many species of Cacti are planted in ground and in pots. Some other noteworthy plants in garden are Adenium, Azadirachta indica, Chlorophytum sp., Asparagus sp., Dracaena sp., Aloe vera, Begonia, Coleus sp., Passiflora, etc.
