Program & Course Outcome

• Programme-Specific Outcomes:
  Since life appeared on Earth, the biological organisms started to roam over the Hydrosphere, Lithosphere and Atmosphere and a new term was coined – the "BIOSPHERE", clubbing the three under one expression. To sightsee the attribution of the biological organisms more precisely, they were classified into five kingdoms and out of which Kingdom Animalia is the most progressive one. The scientific study to apprehend the Kingdom Animalia is basically called as ZOOLOGY. In the program or curricula of Zoological studies at undergraduate level the following outcomes can be commonly interpreted:
  • PSO1 - Students can increase knowledge and can develop skill in the fundamentals of animal sciences to scrutinise the complex interactions among the various animals of different phyla, their distribution and their relationship with the environment.
  • PSO2 – Apply the knowledge of structural complexities of cell to conceptualize the genetic functions in control of various metabolic activities and health of organisms.
  • PSO3 – To correlate the physiological, endocrinological, neurological and biochemical processes of animals and relationship of organ systems.
  • PSO4 – Understands the taxonomic diversification of animals through the course of complex evolutionary processes and behavioural approaches of animals.
  • PSO5 – How to imply the remediation against various modes of Indulgent environmental pollutions to sustain the ecological homoeostasis, biodiversity and conservation of threatened species through different environmental conservation programmes.
  • PSO6 – To identify socio-economic animals and how they are becoming beneficial to humans through knowledge of agro based small scale industries like apiculture, sericulture, lac culture, edible and ornamental fish farming, vermin-compost preparation etc.
  • PSO7 – To identify the impact of various potential risk factors like pollutants, toxins, toxics, pests, parasites, parasitoids, microbes and many other pathogens on the health of biological organisms including humans and to have scalability on the process of recuperation through innate and acquired immune responses against communicable and non-communicable diseases.
  • PSO8 – To generate awareness and commitment amongst students about ethical as well as legal principles towards professional ethics and responsibilities for an overall conservation of communities and environment.
  • PSO9 – Apply the knowledge and understanding of Zoology to one’s own life and work with growing empathy and obvious love towards the animal world for being a green entrepreneur.
