The Radha Govind University was established in 2018. The university is in the lap of Ramgarhcantt valley, Jharkhand. The Department of Microbiology was inaugurated in 2019. Department aims to provide quality teaching and training of the subject Microbiology as well as relevant courses governed by the university. The department is routinely involved in testing the culture and sensitivity of non-clinical samples for the research and teaching purposes and soon going to work on clinical sample as well. The student of microbiology department are dynamic group, organizing and participating in various activities of the department such as field trip, Monthly work presentation, Annual Sports Day and internships
