JNUCEEB: Topic-wise Syllabus

JNUCEEB is conducted by National Testing Agency (NTA) to the applicants for admission in Postgraduate Biotechnology courses in some colleges along with JNU.

As the exam pattern suggests, the exam will be conducted in two parts: Part A and Part B to be attempted in the maximum duration of 3 hours. There will be 120 MCQs asked in the exam.

For MTech Biotechnology Programme:

• There will be two streams from which questions will be asked, Technology/Engineering Stream and Life Science Stream. 
1. Technology/Engineering Stream:

• Basic Engineering and Technology: Chemical Engineering, Chemical Reaction Engineering, Fluid Mechanics, Heat and Mass Transfer, Principles of Biochemical Engineering
• Pharmaceutical Sciences & Bioprocess technology, and Pharmacology: Physiology, Pharmacology & Biochemistry, Industrial Pharmacy, Biologicals and Biopharmaceuticals, Food Science and Technology, Agricultural Biotechnology, Fermentation Technology, Downstream Processing, Cell Culture Techniques
• Mathematics: Calculus - Differential Equation- Complex numbers- Complex integration- Power series- Three Dimensional GeometryAlgebra.
• PhysicsMechanics: Kinematics- Newton’s laws - work and mechanical energy- dynamics of rotary motion- fundamentals of the special theory of relativity- gravitation- motion in non-inertial frames.
• Thermodynamics: Ideal gases- Ist law of thermodynamics- Kinetic theory of gases- 2nd law of thermodynamics -real gases.
• Electricity and Magnetism: Electrostatics- Coulomb’s law- electric field potential- capacitance- dielectrics in an electric field- the energy of an electric field- direct current- magnetic field of direct current- - electromagnetic induction.
• Waves and Optics: Free harmonic oscillators- elastic waves- electromagnetic waves- interference, diffraction, scattering and polarisation of light- thermal radiation.
• Modern Physics: Structure of matter and basic solid-state physics - elementary nuclear physics- elementary quantum mechanics- the structure of atom. Electronic structure of atoms, periodic table and periodic properties. General characteristics, structure and reactions of non-transition elements and transition elements. Coordination compounds, structure, crystal field and ligand field theories, spectral and magnetic properties.
• Chemistry: Synthesis, reactions and mechanisms of alkenes, alkynes, arenes, alcohols, phenols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids and their derivatives, halides, nitro compounds and amines. Structure and properties of biomolecules, carbohydrates, oils, oleochemicals, amino acids and proteins, Chemical equilibrium, first law, thermochemistry, second law and entropy, free energy, properties of dilute solutions. chemical kinetics, rates of reactions and factors affecting rates of reactions. Analytical techniques in Biotechnology: Principle and applications of spectroscopy, principles of UV- visible and IR spectroscopy, analytical chromatography such as HPLC, GC, TLC, HPTLC, FPLC, ion chromatography, Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) etc.

2. Life Sciences Stream:
