Founded by Department of Botany in 2021, Botanic Club is perhaps the first student club initiated since the creation of the Science department in the college. The objectives of the club includes the introduction of students to various aspects of Botany that are not usually dealt with in the classroom and to provide a well-rounded education for students by organizing various co- and extracurricular activities such as field trips, plant collection, lectures and training workshops by eminent scientists. It also aims to conduct other educational events like seminars, debates, quizzes, and competitions in relevant topics. The Club continues to pursue these objectives with great enthusiasm and aspires to maintain this tradition in the future.
