Faculty of Basic Sciences



With the establishment of SKUAST-Jammu in 1999, students were introduced to various basic science subjects for proper understanding of the main stream viz. agriculture and veterinary/animal sciences in respective faculties. Keeping in view its emerging importance, Faculty of Basic Sciences came to existence in 2012 with a mandate of teaching, research and extension in basic science subjects. The Faculty got formal approval in July, 2015 and got accredited as Faculty of Basic Sciences by National Agricultural Education Accreditation Board of ICAR along with four divisions viz. Biochemistry, Statistics & Computer Science, Microbiology and Plant Physiology with PG programmes in the discipline of Biochemistry, Statistics, Microbiology & Plant Physiology and doctoral programmes in Biochemistry and Statistics for a period of five years (2016-17 to 2020-21). The course curricula and syllabi of the programmes of the disciplines have been adopted as per ICAR recommendations and have been designed to provide ideal learning opportunities and skill development to youth.
