1. INTRODUCTION, The learning outcomes-based curriculum framework for B.Sc. degree in Zoology is, structured to offer a broad outline within which a Zoology program could be developed., The course is upgraded keeping in mind the aspirations of students, changing nature of the, subject as well as the learning environment. Courses within Zoology have been revisited to, incorporate recent advancements, techniques to upgrade the skills of learners. The new, structure is expected to enhance the level of understanding among students and maintain the, standard of Zoology degrees/program across the country. Effort has been made to integrate, use of recent technology and use of MOOCs to assist teaching-learning process among, students., This framework permits the review of graduate attributes, qualification descriptors,, program learning outcomes and course-level, , learning, , outcomes, , periodically., , The, , framework offers flexibility and innovation in syllabi designing and in methods adopted for, teaching- learning process and learning assessment. The major objective is to elevate the, subject knowledge of the students, making them critical thinkers and able to solve problems, and issues related to Zoology logically and efficiently. Overall, this course has been, modified to upgrade skills related to biological science and provide our students a, competitive edge in securing a career in academia, industry, pharmaceutical research and, development in private as well as public sectors. This course serves as plethora of, opportunities in different fields right from classical to applied Zoology., , 2. LEARNING OUTCOME BASED CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK IN PROGRAM, Zoology to be studied in an integrated and cross-disciplinary manner with a comprehensive, understanding of all living systems, their relationship with the eco-system and unravelling of, their application value; the scale, character and rigor of which may vary from one institution, to the other, it would, however, be mandatory to bring in uniformity in the learning, outcomes with respect to the ‗broad-range skill sets‘ related-to-the-discipline of the study, and the ‗Social skills‘ in 21st century. The framework imbibes a Learning Outcome-based, Curriculum Framework (LOCF) for all its Under Graduate program in Zoology., A comprehensive understanding and appreciation of the organismal differences through, ICT tools, MOOCs and well-designed hands on practical exposures along with the field, 3

of evolution and compare cardinal features for classification involving both morphological, and molecular tools, along with associated field and lab work, the final product would be, better trained without rote learning. Syllabi required is to impart and assess the quality of, critical thinking, analytical and scientific reasoning, reflective thinking, information and, digital literacy, and problem-solving capacity. Along with social skills to imbibe values for, cooperative team work, moral and ethical awareness and, , reasoning,, , multicultural, , competence, leadership readiness and qualities and self- directed and lifelong learning, attitude., 3. AIM OF PROGRAM, Zoology deals with the study of animal kingdom specially the structural diversity, biology,, embryology, evolution, habits and distribution of animals, both living and extinct. As it, covers a fascinating range of topics, the modern zoologists need to have insight into many, disciplines. The learning outcomes-based curriculum framework for a B.Sc. (Hons.), degree in Zoology is designed to cater to the needs of students in view of the evolving nature, of animal sciences as a subject., The Zoology courses designed in terms of concepts, mechanisms, biological designs, &functions and evolutionary significance cutting across organisms at B.Sc. (Hons.)., level can be delivered by chalk and board, and PowerPoint presentations while teachinglearning process. The students should do the dissertation/ project work under practical of, different courses, wherever possible., 4. NATURE AND EXTENT OF THE PROGRAM, The CBCS framework with credit bank system is to assist in the maintenance of the, standard of Zoology degrees/programmes across the Karnataka state by reviewing and, revising a broad framework of agreed, expected, graduate attributes of qualification with, quality, programme learning outcomes and course-level learning outcomes. The framework,, however, does not seek to bring about uniformity in syllabi for a programme of study in, Zoology, or in teaching-learning process and learning assessment procedures. Instead, the, framework is intended to allow for flexibility and innovation in programme design and, syllabi development, teaching-learning process, assessment of student learning levels., 5. GRADUATE ATTRIBUTES IN B.Sc. (Hons.) ZOOLOGY, Some of the characteristic attributes of a graduate in Zoology may include the following:, 5

Critical thinker and problem solver: Ability to rationally analyze and solve the, , problems related to animal sciences without relying on assumptions and guess work., d. Logical thinking and reasoning: Capability of seeking solutions and logically solving, , them by experimentation and data processing either manually or through software., e. Team spirit: Ability to work effectively in a heterogeneous team., f. Leadership quality: Ability to recognize and mobilize relevant resources essential, , for a project, and manage the project in a responsible way by following ethical scientific, conduct and bio-safety protocols., g. Digitally literate: Capable of using computers for biological simulation, computation, , and appropriate software for biostatistics, and employing search tools to locate,, retrieve, and evaluate zoology-related data., h. Ethical Awareness: Avoiding unethical behaviour such as fabrication, falsification or, , misrepresentation of data or committing plagiarism, as well as appreciate environmental, and sustainability issues., i. Lifelong learners: Capable of self-paced and self-directed learning aimed at personal, , and social development., 6. UALIFICATION DESCRIPTORS:, The qualification descriptors for a Bachelors‘ Degree program in Zoology may include, the following:, 6

Page 8 :
Demonstrate a logical and consistent understanding of the broad concepts in Zoology,, its applications, and related interdisciplinary subjects., Technical knowledge that produces varied types of professionals in the fields like research, and development, teaching and public sector service., Utilise wide-range knowledge, logical thinking and skills for evaluating problems and issues, related to Zoology., Collection of pertinent quantitative and/or qualitative data obtained from, varioussources/experiments, and analysis of the data using appropriate research, methodologies to formulate evidence-based solutions., Effective and precise communication of the investigations undertaken in a variety of, contexts using the major concepts, principles and techniques of the subject(s)., Meet one‘s own learning desires, employing broad range of research and development, work and professional materials., Apply one‘s subject knowledge and skills to novel circumstances enabling to solve, complicated problems with evidence-based well-defined elucidations, Demonstratesubject-relatedskillsrelevanttoZoology-relatedjobsandemployment, opportunities, 5 Curriculum in subjects has to follow these Model Program Structures. The Terminology used in, these Program Structures is., Discipline Core (DSC) refers to Core Courses/Papers in a Core Discipline/ Subject, Discipline Elective (DSE) refers to Elective Courses/Papers in the Core Subject or Discipline., Open Elective (OE) refers to Elective Courses/Papers in a non-core Subject across all disciplines., Program Structures also contain Ability Enhancement Compulsory Courses (AECC), Languages,, Skill Enhancement Courses, (SEC) (Both skills and value based). Pedagogy involves L+T+P model. Generally subjects with, practical involve L+P, while the, subjects without practical involve L+T model. The numbers in parentheses indicate credits allotted to, various courses/papers as per, definitions of Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). Generally 1 hour of Lecture or 2 hours of, practical per week in a semester is, assigned one credit. Generally core subject theory courses/papers will have 3 or 4 credits, while, practical are assigned 2 or 3 credits, , Subject prerequisite: To Study Zoology in undergraduate, student must have studied, Biology or any other equivalent subject in Class 12., 7
