During my evolution as a professor of microbiology/biotechnology and active University researcher, I have played a significant role in the development of microbiology and biotechnology curriculum at the University of Pune as well as in number of Universities in India. I have been involved in this process since 1986 onwards till today. This contribution is crucial for development of microbiology and biotechnology education in Indian Universities. My contributions to curricula development are as follows :
