A variety of new subjects with wide range of applications related to modern needs, human resource development and their usefulness in the country’s development and economy have been introduced. These subjects were previously available mostly in the private sector institutions and some in public sector universities with high fee structure, making them available for the privileged class, hence beyond the reach of the poor but deserving students mainly due to fee structure/financial constraints. Presently disciplines in Bioinformatics, Computer Science, Information Technology, International Relations and Zoology and Microbiology are being run successfully; while some others we hope to start like Sociology etc. The demand regarding this has already been placed with an objective to make college a center of modern sciences.
