Community service is an integral part of personal growth and an educational principle to embrace. Such an essential component is embedded in the Applied Biotechniques in Biotechnology and Community Health module of Semester Six of the IMU Medical Biotechnology programme, where students are required to carry out a community service project in raising awareness on the microbial community on various surfaces in a school.
