About Us
The Department of Physiology forms the foundation of basic medical sciences. It has been an integral part of the Faculty of Veterinary & Animal Sciences, IUB since 2006. The dynamic and foreign qualified faculty of the department is actively involved in teaching various subjects of Medical Physiology to the under-graduate students of DVM, BS Physiology, and BS BBT programs at the IUB. Furthermore, it is also conducting substantial research work in collaboration with other departments of the IUB, as well as of other universities. At the moment, it is offering an under-graduate 04-year BS Physiology, and MPhil (18-year education) programs, however, in near future, we plan to broaden our horizon through initiating PhD in Physiology.
The students at the Physiology Department are provided an in-depth understanding of the ‘secrets of life’ through interesting and applied aspects of medical physiology, animal physiology, hematology, endocrinology, electrophysiology, molecular physiology, exercise physiology, physiological biochemistry and many other.Hands-on practical training is also provided in various physiological/clinical lab techniques such as complete blood count, hematology, electrophysiology, spectrophotometry, etc. Ultimate goal is to equip the students with strong concepts of pathophysiology of a disease, its diagnosis and management.
Conceptual methodology of teaching with the help of modern teaching tools, problem-based learning and national/international collaborations of the department groom the future physiologists for multiple careers in medical field.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Department of Physiology is to cater internationally competitive teaching and research through conducive and learning-based modules in all the allied aspects of Physiology for attaining a better understanding to the processes of a disease.
Vision Statement
The vision of the department is to be a Centre of Excellence in Physiology emerging as one of the top-notched physiology departments of the country and beyond.
