Hey Aadhya,

It includes study of fish processing, aquaculture and fishery resource management, fishing technology and management, fisheries environment and fisheries extension.
For admission to this course, the candidate is required to have passed class 12th examinations or equivalent education.
The admission is based on the criterias set by different colleges, they either gives you admission on the basis of merit in the qualifying examination and personal interview process or they can consider entrance exam conducted by the university itself or state or national level.
