semester – 5 hrs per week. Based on the number of staff, the number

of students per batch will be fixed. Project work may be chosen in the

field of Zoology Major. Each batch has to complete the project work in

the month of March. It will be duly signed by the project guide and the

HOD of Zoology. The VIVA on project work will be conducted at the

end of VI semester. The viva on project will be conducted jointly by

Guide, External Examiner, HOD and the members of staff.
