MS in Crop Physiology and Ecology

TheDepartment of Crop Physiology and Ecology (CPE) was established since the starting with the university (2001) with a view to providing fundamental and advanced courses on plant morphology, anatomy, physiology and ecology to several undergraduate degree programs e.g., ‘Agriculture’and ‘Food Process Engineering’ etc. The Department consists of 8 faculty members of them five are Professors, one Associate Professor, one Assistant Professor and one Lecturer who are shouldering the academic programs as well as research activities of the department.Faculty research areas include plant stress physiology, microclimate manipulations, plant-microbe interaction, plant cell signaling, organic agriculture and solid waste management. Besides the undergraduate degree programs, the department offers both master’s and PhD degree under the faculty of postgraduate studies. The department provides an excellent research environment for post-graduate students with several research opportunities in cutting-edge fields of crop science.The CPE department is working to build stepping stone towards a brighter future for the students of both undergraduate and postgraduate faculties. The department is committed to create and maintain an inclusive, equitable, and diverse environment for national and international students.
