The Department of Zoology aims at imparting the best possible education to the students in the field of Zoology, Biological Techniques, and Biotechnology. Started primarily as a teaching Department, we have entered into the realm of full fledged research at the Master's and Doctoral levels. We are also committed to enlisting the services of expert teachers and researchers, of national and international repute, to facilitate the education of our students and to enhance the capabilities of our younger faculty members by example. Our goal is to develop our Department into a Centre of Excellence with respect to its teaching and research capabilities. We offer three teaching programmes, namely, BSc Zoology, BSc Biological Techniques and Specimen Preparation BT and SP and MSc Biotechnology. In addition, we have facilities for research at the Master's and Doctoral levels.
