Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Msc in Zoology includes a broad spectrum of topics related to Animal Biology. I choose fisheries as my specialization in my second year. There are many interesting topics in all the semesters. We also have a field study/survey in 3rd semester. I think they should also include endocrinology, genetics, and other specializations in the department. The zoology department in this college has only Entomology and Fisheries available as a specialization. Even though the overall course curriculum has many choices still the department restricts it by giving just two options. It eventually minimizes future opportunities.

Placement Experience

0.5

There are no placement programmes as such. They do put notices on board but it is either for UG students or for MBA students. There are no placements drives for Zoology students. They also don't encourage students for internships.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure of this college for the course of Msc in Zoology is 37400 per year and they also take examination fees, practical fees, dissection specimen amount, and field study amount which was approximately 19000 ( in 3rd semester) depending upon the area. I have not taken any scholarship. I don't even know about any scholarship program. They also don't have any campus employment programs or anything as such.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course was quite comprehensive and relevant. They covered all the fields of life sciences in depth- molecular biology, recombinant DNA technology (RDT), microbiology, biostatistics, instrumentation, and immunology, among others. The combination of both foundational and applied topics was the whole reason I chose the course at SVSU. In terms of preparationfor the real world applications, the curriculum does a great job in building clarity and founding strong concepts. For students aiming to prepare for GATE, NET, and higher research projects to delve into, the syllabus provides a strong foundation. Regarding improvements, the lab work could be more one-on-one rather than a bulk implementation, and more hands-on experience needs to be added to the course in comparison to the theoretical knowledge. Speaking of the examination pattern, it works in semesters, with the first one occurring in December, then around April, and the last one around June-July. Other than that, there are internal tests held bimonthly and project submissions before the examination session.
