September 9, 2017:  As part of curriculum, a study tour for T.Y. B.Sc (Botany) was arranged to Lonavala on Saturday, 9th September, 2017 from 7am to 5pm. The field trip aimed at studying vegetation, biodiversity, its distribution and collection of wild plant specimens belonging to algae, bryophytes, pteridophytes and angiosperms. Lonavala proves to be an ideal location for studies on biodiversity as it houses plants from diverse groups. Raewood Park, an arboreum, serves as ex- situ conservation of several medicinal and rare trees found in  Lonavala. Students collected wild specimens from various locations and preserved them for further use. Twelve students along-with staff members Dr. Sayyed Iliyas, Dr. Aafreen A. Ahmed and Dr. Shafikh Shaikh went for the field trip.
