Programme Code: SBR0407 | Level: Graduate | Duration: 4 Years | Dept: Life Science
Overview
B.Sc. Zoology is a very promising programme which offers basic and advanced learning in one of the field of Life Sciences. The entire programme is structured as per the New Education Policy (2020-21) motivating students to pursue a three years “Bachelor in Zoology” degree or a four years “Bachelor (Research) in Zoology” degree. The students enrolled in the course will be acquainted initially with the elementary knowledge of animal kingdom and its diverse fields like parasitology, fisheries, entomology, ornithology, wild life, ecology etc. followed by an in-depth understanding of cellular and molecular happenings in each life forms which will help them initiate a holistic approach attitude. As the students’ advance during their course, they will find many sub specializations which will enable them to expand avenues in medical fields like virology, bacteriology and medical microbiology.
Addition of research component to this program will inculcate scientific orientation among the students right from the beginning.
