It is imperative to internalise fully the fact that human existence depends on plants and hence, the necessity to conserve nature is the need of the hour. A few activities are conducted at the end of each semester which are relevant to the topics covered. Algal collections, mushroom cultivation, visits to tissue culture labs, plant collection trips, project works, and maintenance of plant diversity on campus are few of the activities.
