Podar College comprises a variety of science courses. All the laboratories are well equipped with the latest equipment and apparatus to facilitate students the opportunity to undertake experiments with great precision and high accuracy. Every department has excellent laboratory infrastructural facilities and students are trained in the laboratories to enhance their practical skills and knowledge. New and updated equipment is regularly incorporated in labs with the latest technology which gives the students an added advantage. The laboratory facilities are centralized and the specific set of experiments are catered by the concerned Departments. The specifications of laboratories are as follows:
Botany Labs
They are furnished with the best equipment to facilitate learning by observing, performing, and comprehending the plant kingdom. The Botany department contains four laboratories for conducting practical classes for students. It offers facilities to familiarize students with common experiments and principles necessary for a sound foundation in the plant sciences.
The labs are air-conditioned since the botany experiments do not require the application of heat. The labs are completely fire resistant and are well equipped with first aid kits to deal with any mishaps. The laboratories are well maintained with expert laboratory assistants and attendants. For the conduction of practical classes, blackboards and projection systems are available. Additionally, there are diverse instruments, chemicals, and glassware that are utilized in the practice. Some of the important instruments include centrifuge machines, colorimeter/spectrophotometer, digital anemometers, digital thermometers, lux meters, microscopes (compound, dissecting, binocular), pH meters, photometers, psychrometers, water baths, etc. Further, there are many specimens and fixed materials of plants kept in the laboratories.
Chemistry Labs
The Department of Chemistry at Podar College has a well-equipped laboratory for conducting practical classes, which are managed by well-experienced and capable staff, to meet the need and cultivate students’ enthusiasm for science. The lab is created to be fire resistant and has facilities of fire extinguishers along with first aid kits to handle any kind of mishap. With innovations and different facilities like Filtration Room, Balance Room, Fuming Cupboard, Preparation Room, Instrument Room, and others, the Laboratory has been modernized and properly supplied with equipment and glassware to make studying more fascinating and pleasant. Furthermore, the laboratory is equipped with all of the required infrastructure and equipment to conduct practicals by the standards outlined in the many multidisciplinary course syllabuses. A separate instrument room has been set aside for various instrumental chemistry practicals in addition to the laboratory.
Computer Labs
They are equipped with the latest software and workstations. It is connected to high speed, broadband internet facilitates all the students. Robust servers are connected through a structured network to handle the load. The College has four well-equipped and well-managed Computer Laboratories. These are fully air-conditioned and are equipped with the latest technology as per the need of the present era.
The Labs are world-class and have the latest computers with up-to-date operating systems and equipment. It has state-of-the-art machines from HP and LCD Projectors along with an interactive board with all the necessary peripherals. The labs have high-quality monitors, keyboards, printers, etc.
Our dedicated faculty and staff are proud of their impressive credentials which are comparable to those of the best career instructors in nationally accredited schools and colleges across the nation.
Physics & Electronics Labs
The College understands the need for a state-of-the-art laboratory for physics with updated and calibrated equipment for inquisitive students who are willing to create new collective knowledge and foster the next generation of scientific leaders. The physics labs are well equipped with apparatus such as to help students take part in various experiments related to the subject.
It has to measure equipment such as vernier caliper spectrometers, magnetic equipment like bar magnets, iron fillings for magnetism, optical instruments such as telescopes, microscopes, lenses, mirrors, prisms, along with electrical equipment such as rheostats, slide wires, etc. to facilitate the electronics students as well.
Zoology Labs
Provides the students with a suitable environment to develop a detailed understanding of the animal kingdom by exploring the physical, morphological and physiological characteristics of animals. The laboratory presents through its instruments an ideal place for undergraduate students to study the histology of various cells, tissues and organs.
