Eligibility & Admission Criteria: The candidate must have graduation or equivalent degree from recognized University with Zoology as one of the subjects of study. The candidate should have obtained at least 50% marks (45% in case of candidate belonging to SC/ST category) in the qualifying examination. Admission will be made on the basis of merit of AUCET.

A Ph.D. in Zoology is an advanced research degree that provides students with the opportunity to deeply explore and contribute to the field of animal biology. This program is designed for individuals who are passionate about understanding the diversity, behavior, physiology, ecology, and evolution of animals, and who aspire to make significant contributions to scientific knowledge in these areas.

During a Ph.D. in Zoology program, students typically engage in original research under the guidance of a faculty advisor or mentor. This research may focus on a wide range of topics, such as animal behavior, conservation biology, evolutionary biology, ecology, genetics, physiology, or taxonomy. Students often design and conduct experiments, collect and analyze data, and interpret their findings in the context of existing scientific literature.

In addition to research, Ph.D. students in Zoology usually complete coursework to deepen their understanding of foundational concepts and research methodologies relevant to their area of study. They may also have opportunities to teach undergraduate courses, present their research at conferences, and publish their findings in scientific journals.
