Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University KVASU,
Pookode, Lakkidi(Po), Wayanad, Kerala – 673576



Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University is offering innovative post graduate and research courses in their field of expertise.  Applications are invited for admission to  M.Sc  course of four semesters duration in the faculty of Veterinary and Animal Sciences for the year 2013-14.

Master of Science in Biostatistics
Bio-Statistics has emerged as an important branch of statistical sciences and aid in strengthening research in the disciplines of biology, biomedical, health, veterinary and animal sciences. This course is an interdisciplinary postgraduate course combining statistics, bioinformatics, epidemiology and health sciences. The course will enable the students to become biostatisticians, biostatistical programmers, SAS programmers, consultants and research associates in industry, hospitals, public health labs, planning and research departments, clinical research and pharma industry, universities and government institutions.

Bachelors degree in Statistics / Mathematics / Engineering / Science with Mathematics as optional subject at higher secondary level can apply for the programme

Master of Science in Quality Systems in Dairy Processing
Now a days consumers are concerned about the safety of milk and milk products and the condition under which these are produced.  Chemical and Microbiological safety plays a very significant role in the quality control of milk & dairy products worldwide. Application of HACCP system demands the safety and quality of foods which requires rapid and automated microbiological techniques. This post graduate course is designed to generate qualified persons to handle the emerging needs in Quality control sector in Dairy Industry.

This course encompasses the details on chemical and microbiological contaminants in milk, rapid detection techniques and detection of toxins and contaminants in foods.  The course will further equip the students and open up opportunities to undertake career in Quality management of food products, as supporting staff for teaching, research etc.

B. Tech (Dairy/Food Technology) /Graduation in Microbiology/Chemistry/Food Science/ Biology from a recognized University will be eligible for the programme  

Master of Science in Wildlife Studies
Recently the concern for conservation of wild life in situ and in captivity has increased globally over the years.  There is a dearth of trained personnel with sufficient practical exposure to manage real life situations involving free ranging and captive wildlife. A post-graduate course for bioscience graduates has been designed to cater the needs of aspiring youngsters to fulfil their dreams of research in wildlife conservation and management. The location of the institute in Wayanad district of Kerala makes it the ideal place for development in the wildlife study sector and for the conduct of specialized wildlife related academic programmes like MS (Wildlife Studies).

Eligibility- Bachelor’s Degree in Biosciences (Botany, Zoology, Veterinary Science, Forestry etc.)

Master of Science in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
M.Sc. Biochemistry and Molecular Biology offered by Kerala Veterinary and animal Sciences University is designed to equip students with a comprehensive theoretical and practical knowledge of the complex mechanisms of ‘life’ as a whole. The curriculum contains major courses on Biochemistry and molecular biology and supporting courses on Physiology and Biostatistics. Physiology, unravels various normal processes in the body and correlates with the underlying biochemical mechanisms.  This programme is pivotal in complementing to the foundation of important biomedical applications, genetic engineering, evolutionary biology, biotechnology and immunology.

Master of Science in Applied Microbiology
Applied microbiology focuses on the microbial world in a wide horizon. It looks at how we can harness and manipulate the microbes in wide ranging areas of biotechnology, pest control, bio-refineries, pharmaceutical applications, and their potential as food supplements etc. This course is ideal for the students who desire a career in the forefront of human, animal and plant disease and health. The progamme is designed with courses that will nurture the skills of the students to be qualified personnel to handle the emerging needs in the field of microbiology and biotechnology industries, such as food safety, biomedicine, pharmaceuticals, and diagnostic laboratories and in research institutes.

Master of Science in Animal Sciences
The Animal Science MSc program covers studies on global animal wealth, production trends of ruminants, mono gastric, and poultry. Animal science study help people to develop an understanding of the biology of domestic and captive animals, their care, management and use them as a source for food, fiber, recreation and companionship. The course equips students to manage animals in safe and ethical way in tune with the needs of the industry.

Master of Science in Animal Biotechnology
This two year programme comprises of four semesters, leading to Master of Science degree in Animal Biotechnology, awarded by the Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University. The graduates of this course will be equipped modern technologies in molecular diagnostics, genetically engineered vaccines and drugs for veterinary use, animal tissue culture and hybridoma technology, animal genomics and its applications, metagenomics studies, stem – cell research, wildlife conservation,  use of databases for genomic and proteomic research, ability to apply assisted reproduction techniques such as  in vitro fertilization, cryopreservation of embryos, gamete and embryo manipulation, production of transgenic animals and cloning, biomolecular techniques for the diagnosis and  epidemiological studies of animal diseases, knowledge of cellular and biochemical mechanisms  in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses including climatic change, feed biotechnology and ruminant feed utilization.
