Te department of MCA was started from the academic year 2001-2002. Three years MCA programme is offered in our department. This programme is approved by All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE) with intake of 40.

 

The department has a team of 10 faculty members including two Doctoral degree holders. Four of our faculty members are pursuing their Ph.D Programme. The faculty members have professional membership in IEEE, CSI and ISTE. Trust areas of our department are Data mining, software engineering and e-learning.

 

Agriclinics provide services and advice to farmers on cropping practices, biofertilizers, vermicompost, micronutrients and crop protection from pests and diseases of various crops in the market. Sustainable crop production depends much on good soil health. Soil health maintenance warrants optimum combination of organic and inorganic components of the soil. Repeated use of chemical fertilizers destroys soil biota.

 

In nature, there are a number of useful soil micro organisms which can help plants to absorb nutrients. Their utility can be enhanced with human intervention by selecting efficient organisms, culturing them and adding them to soils directly or through seeds. The cultured micro organisms packed in some carrier material for easy application in the field are called bio-fertilizers.
