Set up by Biotech Foundation, a trust for promoting Education, Training and Research in Genetic and Biotechnology. Institute of Genetic Engineering (IGE) established in 2003, to ensure quality teaching and research in Genetics and Biotechnology.

The department of Genetics, Microbiology and Biotechnology was established in 2003 with a view to develop a Centre of Excellence in Education and Research in Genetics and Biotechnology in West Bengal. Initially, it was started with UG courses (B. Sc. Hons) in Biotechnology and Microbiology was affiliated with University of Kalyani in 2003 and then Genetics and Molecular Biology was added under the same University in the year, 2004. In the year 2006 this Institute joined WBUT and added PG course in Genetic Engineering along with above UG courses.

Five batches have passed out with excellent grades and joined / placed in PG courses in various Universities in India and Abroad (see www.ige-india.com) Some of our students has ranked in local Universities like WBUT, University of Kalyani and Pune University.
