Oceanography
Also known as oceanology, it is the study of ocean currents, waves, the geology of the sea floor, and physical properties within the ocean and across its boundaries. It is the study of all things that are related to the ocean.
Eligibility Criteria:
- This course is after graduation, and students need to pass B.Sc. either in Zoology/ Botany/ Chemistry/ Fishery Science/ Earth Science/Physics/ Agriculture/ Microbiology/ Applied Sciences or in other equivalent fields
