Victorian Botany Alumni Association has been formed in the year 2008 and since its formation, the association had one to two get together annually, until its revamping in September 2017. From September 2017, VIBA was rejuvenated with new membership drive and its activities got geared in October 2017 with the grant get together of alumni of the department along with the faculty who have served the department since 1970. Annually, average of six executive meetings of the VIBA are conducted to decide on the policy matters of VIBA. Retired faculties who have served the department since 1965 along with prestigious alumni of the department will attend the VIBA meet every year in the month of October or July and in the meetings. The great achievement of VIBA is the sponsorship by one of the great alumni, Dr. M. C. Gopinathan for an annual lecture series under the auspices of VIBA. As part of this lecture series, VIBA decided to plant a tree which is not present in the campus every year. VIBA started publishing a newsletter with memoirs of faculty and alumni who served the department since 1950. The first issue of VIBA Botanica got published in July 2018. The major outreach programmes of VIBA are
