Department of ZOOLOGY & AQUACULTURE

About Department



Department of Aquaculture is to oversee the implementation on the national fisheries programmers in capture fisheries and Aquaculture development.


Zoology is a branch of biology which specializes in the study of animals both living and extinct, including their anatomy and physiology, embryology, genetics, evolution, classification, habits, behavior and distribution.
The Department of Aquaculture & Zoology started its journey in 2021 as a subject with the combination of Chemistry in Government Degree College, Avanigadda. The faculty members are always ready to give possible assistance and guidance to students. Besides teaching the Department organizes class wise student seminars , Debates, Group Discussion, Quiz, the students are properly guide by faculty to participate in various competitions Remedial/Extra classes are conducted with appropriate focus on the subject/topics for slow learners and given Individual academic counseling and motivation by teacher. For advanced learners Guiding the students for Competitive Examinations. Encouraging participating in various programs like quiz, poster presentation, Conferences, inter institution competition etc. The percentage of students successfully passing at University examination is always cent percent.
Students have taken field trips to museums, historical sites and other culturally enriching institutions as a way to supplement the lessons they learn in the traditional, yet limited, class room setting. Field trips expose students to different lifestyles, places and eras.
Through the study of Aquaculture the students practiced values like honesty, sincerity in their life and also have qualities like organizational, Leadership. Students of Aquaculture participate in NSS activities to create awareness among the people on clean and green and seasonal diseases and personal hygiene. Students actively participate in rallies organized by the Department like Earth day awareness etc. To install the feeling of patriotism among the students department of Aquaculture celebrates Aquaculture day and National leader’s birth and death anniversaries. Being a subject of Aquaculture, has its own value in society and human life. It helps the students to develop their ethical and social value.
