Zoology

To gain admission to the M.Sc. Zoology program at Palamuru University, you'll typically need to meet the cutoff scores in the Telangana State Common Post Graduate Entrance Test (TS CPGET). This exam serves as the primary entrance requirement for Palamuru and other universities across Telangana offering postgraduate programs. While cutoff scores can vary yearly depending on the number of applicants, exam difficulty, and seat availability, candidates often need to meet a minimum qualifying mark around 25 for general and OBC categories. Specific cutoff details for reserved categories may vary as some do not have minimum cutoff scores. Once CPGET results are released, counseling sessions follow, where candidates are allotted seats based on their scores and preferences.

The B.Sc programme at Vardhman Mahaveer Open University (VMOU) Kota, which specializes in Botany, Chemistry, and Zoology, is intended to give students a thorough grasp of the life sciences and how they relate to one another. The curriculum usually consists of foundational courses like Botany, which covers the biology, taxonomy, physiology, and ecology of plants; Chemistry, which includes Organic, Inorganic, and Physical Chemistry and gives a strong foundation in chemical principles and their applications; and Zoology, which focusses on the biology, taxonomy, anatomy, and physiology of animals. Students can also participate in field research and practical laboratory work to obtain firsthand knowledge of the subjects they have selected. Additionally, the curriculum includes elective courses and interdisciplinary themes that broaden students' understanding and prepare them for employment in environmental management, research, education, and other life sciences-related disciplines. The overall goal of VMOU's B.Sc. programme is to give students the academic understanding and practical abilities they will need for their future work in the scientific community. 

Yes, with a BSc Zoology, you are eligible to pursue a Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology (DMLT). DMLT programs are open to candidates with a background in Science, and your knowledge in Zoology will be beneficial for understanding medical and biological concepts in lab technology.To apply, you can check eligibility criteria and application dates for DMLT courses offered by universities, medical colleges, or paramedical institutes in your area. Admissions are often based on merit, but some institutes might conduct entrance exams. Generally, applications can be completed online through the institution’s official website or in person by visiting the admission office.

Most of the institutes do not have a proper syllabus set for their entrance examinations. Some of the expected topics are mentioned below:Biomolecules: structure, organization, and roleCell Structure and functionCell SignallingImmunologyGeneticsAnimal and Plant PhysiologyEcologyIt is not very tough to take MSc Zoology exams. The entrance examinations cover the material taught in the graduation level of B.Sc. Zoology program. So, candidates holding bachelor's in zoology can clear it only by studying their course topics.It would be beneficial to look at the previous question papers, to get an idea of the exam you are applying. Solving model test papers can help to practice and check the amount of preparation done.

Yes, here are some popular Zoology specialisations you can study:Ethology: Ethology is one of the specializations of zoology. This is a scientific and objective study of animal behaviour under natural conditions. Ethologists study the evolution of behaviour and the understanding of behaviour in terms of the theory of natural selection.Biogeography: Biogeography is the specialisations of zoology. It studies the spatial distribution of organisms on the earth and focuses on topics like plate tectonics, climate change, dispersal and migration, and cladistics.Physiology: This specialisation studies the mechanical, physical, and biochemical processes of living organisms by attempting to understand how all of the structures function as a whole.Structure: The cell biology or structure studies the structural and physiological properties of cells. This includes cell behaviour, interactions, and environment. This is done on both the microscopic and molecular levels.Evolution: Evolutionary research is concerned with the origin and descent of species and their change over time. It generally involves scientists who are trained in particular organisms such as mammalogy, ornithology, herpetology, or entomology.
