Two decades of TSBS graduates carrying the institution's name into pharmaceutical, healthcare, research and biotechnology careers across India and abroad.
Alumni mentoring is a mutually beneficial relationship that fosters personal and professional growth for students and alumni alike. TSBS actively builds connections between graduates working in the industry and current students preparing to enter it.
Why alumni mentoring matters
Career Guidance and Insight
Alumni share first-hand knowledge of the industry — the roles, skills and companies that matter — helping students make more informed career choices.
Networking Opportunities
Every mentoring conversation opens a door into a wider professional network of labs, companies and research groups.
Personal Development
Regular contact with alumni who have navigated the same coursework builds judgement and confidence well beyond the classroom.
Building Confidence
Hearing how recent graduates handled interviews, internships and their first jobs makes those same milestones feel achievable.
Enhancing Alumni Engagement
Mentoring keeps graduates connected to TSBS long after convocation, strengthening the community on both sides.
Utkal University gold medalists
TSBS students have topped Utkal University's B.Sc. and M.Sc. Biotechnology and Bioinformatics examinations every few years since the programme's early batches.
Twenty-two years of the biotech department have sent graduates into research institutes, universities and companies across the world.
