To study about the life of any organism, the prerequisite is a thorough knowledge about the cell components, their functions and biochemical pathways. Only with basic understanding, can one proceed to the study of molecular biology. In this paper the students are made to learn the structures and purposes of basic components of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Students get an idea about how these cellular components perceive the environmental signal and respond to them in the language of signal transduction.

BTY351 - PRACTICAL IN MOLECULAR-BIOLOGY AND

BIOPHYSICS (2014 Batch)



Course Objective

This paper aims to provide students with an indepth

understanding of the basic concepts of molecular biology. The

structural and functional aspects of basic biomolecules such as

DNA, RNA and protein and the mechanisms of DNA replication,

transcription, translation and gene regulation will be dealt

with. The course facilitates the students to have a strong

understanding of the molecular basis of life and the underlying

genetic principles.

Learning Outcome

The main outcome of this paper is that the student will

have the basic in depth knowledge about the

macromolecules that store, transmit and execute the

genetic information in a living system and the

molecular mechanism of the information flow in the

living system. This theoretical knowledge on molecular

biology will help the students to learn basics of the

make perfect connections with the world outside. Inspired by the

educational philosophy of Rousseau, Emerson, Ivan Illich, Paulo

Freire, Gandhi, Tagore and Blessed Chavara, the University

formulated this concept of Holistic Education more than fifteen

years ago and included it in the curriculum and makes necessary

changes every year. A group of teachers drawn from across the

streams go through the whole process of designing the curriculum

through a series of intense discussions under the broad

classification of three skills: personal, interpersonal and societal.

Course Objective

Environment: This package discusses the amount of harm done to the environment by modern scientific and technological developments. Man’s relationship with nature and other living beings has undergone unwelcome changes and if this not arrested the humanity will lose its equilibrium.

TML331 - TAMIL (2014 Batch)



Course Objective

Moving on to the later periods of Tamil literature, this paper covers the age of divinity with a few selections from the Bhakti literature Nalayiradivyaprabandam including the hymns of Andal, Periyalvar, Kulasekaralvar and Nammalvar. With a view to

introducing Bharathiyar in a different way, his metaphysical poems are included. Theivangalum Samuga Marabukalum a collection of essays on history and culture gives an overview of the multiculturalism that India is known for from the time immemorial

Learning OutcomeDivinity is an essential part of Indian culture. The Bhakti movement originated in the eighth century spread to the other parts of South India and each poet had his/her own philosophy of life.

A careful selection of these poems offer a spiritual experience to the students. Bharatiyar’s metaphysical expressions added to make the students see each phenomenon in a different way


Bhakthi Poems

Bhakthi movement is a significant period in the cultural history of South India. The role played by Saivite Nayanmars and Vaishnavite Alwars through their soul-filling hymns is explained. Emphasis is given to the 'bridal mysticism' of Andal


Bharathi as a Metaphysical poet

The national poet Bharathiar is known as a nationalist and romantic poet. The poems included in the syllabus show the other side of Bharathiar engaged in a discussion whether beauty is supreme or knowledge. There is also a poem on Magdalena whose identity never came in the way of her devotion


Gods in Cultural Tradition

India gives very complex interpretations to the concept of God. Polytheism of Indian tradition is explained through an

elaborate field work experience. Added also is the story of many temples which is also the story of many social groups


Grammar,Translation and Literary Practices

Advanced grammatical units are explained. Literature as a part of cultural studies is discussed Essential Text Books:
