Zoology

DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY

ABOUT  THE DEPARTMENT:The Department of Zoology established in the academic year 2009-10.Initially, Zoology subject was offered as a combination course with Botany and Chemistry. However, marking a significant milestone, the Department of Zoology has now introduced Zoology as a major subject. The mission of the Zoology Department is, to share fundamental, theoretical, and practical knowledge in zoological sciences, empowering students for lifelong professional growth and success in diverse careers. our laboratory facilitates hands-on experience for the students.To foster entrepreneurship and self-employment, we offer certificate courses like Vermicomposting, Mushroom culture,Ornamental fish management.faculty members are student-friendly, approachable, and dedicated to academic and personal mentoring. We encourage students to participate in various co- curricular and extracurricular activities, shaping them into well-rounded individuals. Our students pursuing M.Sc. and other advanced degrees.

BSc Zoology (H) Programme Outcomes

Zoology is one of the most fundamental branch of biology to be studied at undergraduate level. It is

required to learn and understand abo animal diversity to appreciate the variability in relation to

their morphology, anatomy and behaviour among different animals. Our students will be equipped

to learn and know about different human systems, their coordination and control. This course will

also provide an opportunity to learn ab their own evolution along with other animals. They will be

able to qualitatively and quantitatively analyse evolutionary parameters using various bioinformatics

and computational tools used in modern sciences. This will provide them ample opportunities to

explore different career avenues. This course will also provide a platform to learn classical genetics

to understand distribution of different traits among populations, their inheritance ethnicity and can

correlate with contemporary and modern techniques like genomics, metagenomics, genome editing

and molecular diagnostic too Practical and theoretical skills gained in this course will be helpful in

designing different public health strategies for social welfare.

Programme specific outcome-Zoology course also provide a knowledge of applied subjects to

develop various skills to make a career and become an entrepreneur in the field of aquatic biology,

sericulture, apiculture etc. After completion of this course students will be able to contribute as

policy makers in wild life conservation animal preservation and environment protection.
