Re: Dibrugarh University BSC 2nd Semester Syllabus
As you want I am here giving you syllabus for BSC Zoology 2nd Semester course of Dibrugarh University. Syllabus: Semester 1 : Non-chordate diversity, Systematics and Evolution Practical based on ZooGT-101 Semester 2 : Cell Biology and Biochemistry Practical based on ZooGT- 201 Semester 3 : Chordate diversity and Developmental Biology Practical based on ZooGT-301 Semester 4 : Animal Physiology and Endocrinology Practical based on ZooGT-401 Semester 5 : Genetics and Molecular Biology Practical based on ZooGT- 501 Semester 6 : Ecology and Biostatistics Practical based on ZooGT-601 BSC Zoology course syllabus The course is designed with on objective to provide the under graduate students with basic knowledge of animal diversity, their evolution, classification, development and function at cellular, organisms and molecular levels along with their interaction with environment. Skill based courses are also included to increase employability of the students. EXAMINATION: There shall be 12 (twelve) papers; 6 (six) each of theory and practical papers in zoology (general course). 20% of marks of each theory and practical paper shall be evaluated as Internal Assessment (IA).
