No, ICAR AIEEA is not the only entrance exam conducted by colleges for BFSc admission. There are many colleges across the country that accept CUET, MHT CET, etc. exam scores as well.

In my opinion, MFSc (Master of Fisheries Science) is the best course to pursue after BFSc. Similar to a Master's degree in other fields, the MFSc programme is designed to provide students with in-depth knowledge, specialised skills, and research expertise in areas related to fisheries, aquaculture, marine biology, and related subjects.

Though it is a bit difficult to conclude an average salary for a BFSc graduate, as it depends on various factors such as specific job role, location, experience, and the organisation you work for. Still, you can expect a starting package of INR 2.7 LPA to INR 9 LPA as an Aquaculture Specialist.
