Our vision is to emerge as the Centre of Excellence, innovative thinking, knowledge generation, deep intellectual transformation, human resource development of global appeal, adaptability and employability.

Our mission is to foster an environment of excellence by attracting outstanding students, and offering excellent teaching and training programs to infuse and guarantee extraordinary competence in plant sciences. We are committed to provide supportive environment for innovative thinking, new ways of understanding, collaborative work, nurture and inculcation of values, promotion of talent and skills, intellectual and social transformation. Our mission is to provide every student with individual opportunities to excel. We aim for a better tomorrow, better life, better society and better world.

Strength of the Department
1. Highly qualified and experienced Faculty.
2. The Department is exploiting and enjoying the services of seven experienced, dedicated and highly qualified faculty members with diverse research specializations.
3. The Department is offering a conducive and supportive environment for teaching- learning and other student oriented academic activities, providing every student with individual opportunity to excel.
4. The Department has a wide array of resources and rich infrastructure which make teaching learning easy, effective, impressive and meaningful.
5. Well-equipped Laboratories, Herbarium, rich Museum, Botanical Garden with rich systematic and floral diversity, a pond housing aquatic plants, rock garden, a hot house, a poly house, fern house and other assets at the Department help strengthen and make our teaching and training programs of plant sciences enormously effective, practical, concrete and result oriented.
6. Audio-visual facilities for effective teaching learning process.
7. Regular Field based studies for teaching-learning classical Plant Sciences.
8. Efficient mentorship and periodical student evaluations.
Weakness
1. Lack of advanced equipments to carry out experiments in molecular biology of plants.
2. Dearth of teaching and non-teaching staff.
Opportunities
The Department has enormous opportunities for collaboration with other academic and research bodies for starting Interdisciplinary research projects and draw funding from national agencies like UGC, DBT, DST, ICMR, and ICAR. This can galvanize the research infrastructure and knowledge base of the Department and help achieve multiple short and long term goals associated with our vision.
Threats
Globally there is a lot of scope for skilled botanists or plant scientists with enormous experience and training in molecular techniques and handling advanced equipments. Trailing on this front, this limitation has to be urgently overcome to make our students relevant globally and compatible for diverse frontiers of science.
