ABOUT THE ZOOLOGY DEPARTMENT

The Department of Zoology, Naorem Birahari College, Khundrakpam came into existence in 1999. Since beginning, the Department is engaged in running Graduate course in Zoology. The Department has successfully organized 01 National Seminars along with publishing the proceedings The Department has highly qualified, experienced committed faculty. The faculty members of the Department are actively engaged in research in all minor and major thrust areas of Zoology. The Department of Zoology is dedicated to excel in teaching to serve the society by encouraging social, ethical and moral values. Through our Graduate course programs, we envision to prepared students for the future by imparting quality education of the future by imparting quality education of the basic, applied and advanced aspects in life science with an emphasis on animals systems to achieve the goal to enrich the human, animals and environment life. The learning outcomes- based curriculum framework for B.Sc. degree in Zoology is structured to offer a broad outline within which a Zoology program could be developed. The course is upgraded keeping in mind the aspirations of students, changing nature of the subject as well as the learning environment. The new structure is expected to enhance the level of understanding among students and maintain the standard of Zoology and maintain the standard of Zoology degrees/program. The major Objective is to elevate the subject knowledge of the students, making them critical thickness and able to solve problems and issues related to Zoology logically and efficiently. Overall, this course has been modified to upgrade skills related to biological science and provided our students a competitive edge in securing a career in academic, industry, pharmaceutical research and development in private as well as public sector. This course serves as plethora of opportunities in different field’s right from classical to applied Zoology.

The Department of Zoology with combination and with the intention of providing good education to needy students from the rural background who wished to pursue further studies. The department has produced Basic Infrastructure and all types of specimens which help students in understanding the subject. Department of Zoology organizes an assay of co-curricular activities every academic year to make learning beyond the classroom fascinating. Field trips are organized by the Department to provide the students an insight into the recent advances in Zoology. The head and the staff of the Department have motivated the students for different project work, curricular and co-curricular activities for their development overall the college has a good environment there is scope for the growth of students.
