REPORT OF BIOTECHNOLOGY FEST – OPERON 2013
The Department of Biotechnology
hosted it’s Annual Fest, OPERON on August 27 2013, welcoming colleges from
around the city to participate in various events. Neighbouring colleges like Jyothi Nivas,
St.Josephs as well as those colleges across the city like MES, Kristu Jayanti,
NMKRV, Vijaya College, BMS, Garden City, BHS and Oxford rendered quite a number
of participants.
The programme for the day started at 9:30 AM with an
invocation song. This was followed by a short documentary made by the final
year Biotech students depicting the highlights of Biotechnology department.
Various nail-biting events like Master cracker, debate and Potpourri showed
maximum number of participants. The event Marketing Genius portrayed entrepreneurship,
however amateur, in the students.
Apart from textbook knowledge, participants
were also tested in their creativity in art and poetry in events like Techtooning
and Synthesizing Shakespeare. Winners from the latter events proved that one
can be an all-rounder in the field of science as well as art simultaneously. The
events of the day were carried out smoothly under the guidance of Dr Suma S,
the faculty Coordinator of OPERON 2013. Prizes were distributed during the
valedictory function by Dr. Nanjegowda, Dean of Science, Dr.Louis George,
Associate Dean of Science and Prof Baby
Mathew, ex COE.
A brilliant cultural performance was put up by the students of
the Biotechnology department. St.Josephs
College of Arts and Science was awarded the overall trophy. The vote of thanks
was rendered by the OPERON student Coordinator Michelle DSouza. All in all,
happy memories were created that day, memories which one will never forget.
