If students in the food and agricultural engineering have molecular biology/biochemistry expertise then would also be eligible.

The program is open to 3rd year undergraduate students with someexceptions for 4th year students (returning students). Preference will be given to students from faculty where there is interest for further collaboration/or there is an existing collaboration (Suman Chakraborty, TK Maiti and MD Behera)
