Department of Zoology

About the Department: In Maharashtra Mahavidylaya Nilanga B.Sc. programme started  in 1985-86 from that  date ZOOLOGY department comes in existence. ZOOLOGY students receiving knowledge of various discipline of subjects as well as  study  of biodiversity by arranging excursion tours and acquiring global placements in various sectors. All the students centered activities are running in the department to make students versatile & to achieve great success piece , Harmony  in their life

Many students achieved Set Net JRF from this department & also so many students secured jobs in various private institute. Laboratory work also very important aspect for identification ,Classification of different Animals belongs to various Phylums. Department working till date running all program prescribed  by SRTMU Nanded .Department of ZOOLOGY has  Working as Educational and Social help center by enabling Empowering the students through knowledge. Our Department is also working to inculcate  ethical values, Environment  Conversation, Human Value guidelines for sustainable Development and to concrete the nation.
