VISION
The Department of zoology is a nurturing field for students’ holistic improvement and to
inculcate the highest values of biological science including taxonomy, evolution, environment,
developmental biology, and molecular science. . The holistic development of the student and
make them able to contribute effectively for their welfare and society in this dynamic era.
The department promotes the discovery and broad knowledge about the biology of animals,
evolution and their environments. By utilizing cutting-edge research and progressive pedagogical
practices, we aim to instill in our pupils the greatest possible moral standards, a profound respect
for the natural environment, and a comprehensive understanding of animal sciences.

MISSION
 To motivate the students for their fruitful life. To develop the broad knowledge about the
biology of animals.
 To impart entrepreneurial skills through application-oriented subjects. To provide the
best education for students to achieve their goals.
 To promote research and learning. To create awareness about health-related problems by
curriculum

 To provide learners with the knowledge and abilities needed for their future endeavors.

 To foster an appetite for research and encourage scientific temperament.
 To develop participants into self-assured, environmentally conscious citizens who
can make meaningful contributions to the dynamic world.
SWOC ANALYSIS
STRENGTH
• Well-equipped Laboratory.
• Internet facility.
• Good Interaction between faculty and students.
• Quality contribution college administrative work.
WEAKNESS
• Research activity should be increased, Students from vernacular background. Financial
assistant is needed to conduct various Project and Research activities.
OPPORTUNITY
• Good opportunities for zoology students of placement in lectureship, research, forest
department, competitive exams, animal care taker branch, Forensic Medicine, Pest control,Gene
technology ,Biotechnological fields , Microbiological fields, animal suppliers etc. They can start
small scale industries such as Dairy, Poultries , Sericulture ,Vermiculture, Apiculture, Fisheries,
Pearl culture, Aquaculture and Pisciculture.
CHALLENGE
1. To increase student’s progression
2. To enhance self-reliant among the students.
3. To cope-up with the students from rural background.
4. To teach and conduct practical classes of the students with poor foundation and Some norms
from the Concern authority.
FUTURE PLAN

• To start Certificate course in applied Zoology branches.
• To develop the Zoology lab as demanded by the curriculum and Syllabus.
OBJECTIVES
The primary objective of the department is to impart quality education in the subject of Zoology
as a basic science and its applied branches to the students from rural area with very minimum
fees.
The Department is having the following objectives:
 To provide quality education in a branch of Biological sciences i.e Zoology with different
specializations.
 To facilitate Higher education & research in zoology.
 To provide quality education offering skill based programs and motivate the students for self
employment in applied branches of Zoology.
 To inculcate the value based education and entrepreneurial skills among the students.
 To Inculcate the spirit of resource conservation and love for nature
 To conduct field studies and different projects of local and global interests.
 To provides opportunities for professional and personal development through curricular and
co- curricular activities.
 Provide consultancy and organize extension activities.
