Pattern of Examination
Theory :
Two theory papers of 50 marks each and three hours duration will be conducted at
the end of each semester.
Practicals :
1. One Practical examination of 30 marks and of five hours duration will be conducted at the
end of each semester.
2. Practical examination at the end of each semester will be conducted by internal and
external examiner.
3. Every candidate must produce a certificate from Head of the Department of his/her
college, saying that he/she has completed practical course in satisfactory manner. The
student should record his/her observations and report of each experiment in the journal.
The journal is to be signed periodically by teacher-in-charge & certified by Head of the
Department at the end of the semester. Candidate has to produce their certified journal
and tour report at the time of practical examination. Candidate is not allowed to appear
for the practical examination without a certified journal.
Internal Assessment:
The 20 marks are allotted for internal assessment, which will be evaluated individually
for each paper (i.e. 10 marks for each paper) by the university approved teacher.
The internal assessment shall be done by the concerned teacher one month prior to the
final examination of the semester and marks shall be sent to the university immediately, in the
form of soft copy as well as hard copy duly signed by concerned teacher and HOD.

Zoological Excursion:
Excursion or study tour is compulsory for B.Sc. I, II & III year students. One long
excursion and two short field visits are compulsory during the course.
One teacher along with a batch of 20 students be taken for excursion. T.A. and D.A. for
teachers and non-teaching staff participating in excursions should be paid as per university
rules. Tour report duly certified by concerned teacher and Head of the Department should be
submitted at the time of practical exam.
