This course covers the core concepts, theories, and evidence that underpin the fascinating
process of how life on earth has transformed over time. From understanding the concept of
evolution and exploring the historical theories proposed by key figures like Darwin, to
examining compelling evidence such as fossils and genetic variations, participants will gain a
comprehensive insight into the forces shaping the diversity of living organisms. This course
not only equips learners with a solid foundation in evolutionary biology but also fosters a
deeper appreciation for the interconnectedness of all living beings and the dynamic tapestry of
life on our planet.
This course is aimed as a preliminary course of animal biology, emphasizing key topics such
as animal size, homeostasis, osmoregulation, sensory systems and locomotion. The course
covers topics on tissues, organs and organ systems. The student is introduced to homeostasis
and heat exchange in animals. Animal osmoregulation and locomotory structures like muscles
and skeleton are discussed. Another important aspect of animal colouration and integument is
introduced here. The final section focuses on nerve impulse transduction, memory and
sensory organs.
This course explores the fascinating world of immunology, explaining body's remarkable defense system. This course is designed to equip the students with a foundational understanding of immunology, providing valuable insights into how your body defends itself and maintains health. The historical roots of immunology along with its fundamental principles are dealt in this course. A deep understanding of the key players in the immune system – the organs and cells, along with the mechanisms- that work tirelessly to protect the body will be gained by the participants. The course unpacks the different types of immunity and explores how the immune system mounts a primary and secondary response to combat invaders, and how it adapts throughout our lives.
Biochemistry is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes within and related to living organisms. This course provides an in-depth examination of the molecular mechanisms underlying biological functions, emphasizing the structure, function, and regulation of biomolecules. Students will gain a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles governing cellular processes and their significance in health and disease
This course helps the students to gather overall knowledge regarding the basic unit of life, the Cell. This course is designed to enable them to understand the functions of Cellular components in supporting all the life processes. Students also achieve a comprehensive & detailed understanding of the chemical basis of Heredity and its various applications in day today life.
