Department of Biochemistry and Chemistry organized a one-day exposure tour for 4th semester students to Karith village, a geographically unique area serving as a prime study site. The excursion aimed to provide students with firsthand experience in conducting on-site water and soil analysis.
Led by Mr. Tundup Namgail, Assistant Professor of Biochemistry, and Dr. Lobzang Tashi, Assistant Professor of Chemistry, the tour commenced with comprehensive assessments of key parameters such as pH, temperature, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Electrical Conductivity (EC), and more. The students actively participated in the analysis and collected soil and water samples for further analysis at the college laboratory.
The tour provided an invaluable opportunity for students to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting. Conducting real-time testing of water and soil allowed them to grasp the complexities of environmental analysis firsthand.
Following the analytical sessions, students trekked through valley and visited artificial glacier (also known as Ice Stupa) where they gained insights into innovative water conservation techniques and climate change mitigation strategies.
The success of the tour lies in the enriching experiences gained by our students. Exploring Karith village not only broadened their understanding of environmental chemistry but also instilled a sense of responsibility towards sustainable practices.
