The aim of the course:
To teach students describtion and identification of non infectious fish diseases caused by various agents
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : identify and prevent noninfectious fish diseases1,2,3,61,6
PO - 2 : explain mortalities caused by low dissolved oxygen1,2,31,6
PO - 3 : learn nutritional diseases caused by nutrient deficiency1,2,31,6
PO - 4 : explain toxicity of nitrite and ammonia1,2,31,6
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome

 
Contents of the Course
Environmental diseases include low dissolved oxygen, high ammonia, high nitrite or natural or man-made toxins in the aquatic environment. Nutritional diseases caused by nutrient deficiency and genetic abnormalities include conformational oddities such as lack of a tail or presence of an extra tail.
