Centre for South Asian Studies

The Centre was set up in its embryonic form in 1973 and acquired its present status in 1975. The Centre sets out to extend and improve the public understanding of Socio-economic and political developments in South Asia, particularly in Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka and the Maldives.

Department of Archaeology

Archaeology is the scientific study of past human culture and behaviour through the examination of material remains of previous human societies. The search for the past is the search for ourselves. These remains include the human bones, floral faunal and food remains, ruins of buildings, and artifacts such as house hold objects, metal ware, personal jewelry, gem and jewels, coins and icons, etc. such relies of ancient man are studied by the archaeologist through field surveys and excavations, and museum collections as well as through laboratory analysis to reconstruct the past ways of life. In addition to class room the archaeological studies involves a lot of field work, exploration and excavations, repeated museum visits, preservation and restoration of heritage properties.

The Goals of Archaeology

Modern archaeological studies have three major goals:

a. Chronology
It establishes the age of the excavated material by fixing absolute doting of objects and culture and comparative dating by comparing similar other objects and culture.

b. Reconstruction
Reconstructions are models of what past human campsites, settlement or cities and their environment might have looked like, and how they might have functional.

c. Explanation
Explanations are scientific theories about what people living in the past thought and did.

History of biotechnology

Biotechnology is the application of scientific and engineering principles to the processing of materials by biological agents to provide goods and services.[1] From its inception, biotechnology has maintained a close relationship with society. Although now most often associated with the development of drugs, historically biotechnology has been principally associated with food, addressing such issues as malnutrition and famine. The history of biotechnology begins with zymotechnology, which commenced with a focus on brewing techniques for beer. By World War I, however, zymotechnology would expand to tackle larger industrial issues, and the potential of industrial fermentation gave rise to biotechnology.However, both the single-cell protein and gasohol projects failed to progress due to varying issues including public resistance, a changing economic scene, and shifts in political power.
Yet the formation of a new field, genetic engineering, would soon bring biotechnology to the forefront of science in society, and the intimate relationship between the scientific community, the public, and the government would ensue. These debates gained exposure in 1975 at the Asilomar Conference, where Joshua Lederberg was the most outspoken supporter for this emerging field in biotechnology. By as early as 1978, with the synthesis of synthetic human insulin, Lederberg's claims would prove valid, and the biotechnology industry grew rapidly. Each new scientific advance became a media event designed to capture public support, and by the 1980s, biotechnology grew into a promising real industry. In 1988, only five proteins from genetically engineered cells had been approved as drugs by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), but this number would skyrocket to over 125 by the end of the 1990s.
The field of genetic engineering remains a heated topic of discussion in today's society with the advent of gene therapy, stem cell research, cloning, and genetically modified food. While it seems only natural nowadays to link pharmaceutical drugs as solutions to health and societal problems, this relationship of biotechnology serving social needs began centuries ago
