Conduct of Practical and Hands-on-Training:
We follow three different basic steps viz., seeing/observing, doing and writing for practical
learning of students in the guidance of teachers.
Seeing/Observing: Students observe the method of doing various things by their teachers e.g.,
various operations and other clinical procedures. For passive learning various flow charts, banners
and posters are displayed. The power point presentations on various topics are also delivered to
students.
Doing: The UG students are involved in performing various activities in the laboratories/farms as
well in hospitals. They are involved in recording of various clinical parameters, administration of
medicines, minor surgical/obstetrical procedures and analysis of samples in the laboratory. They
are provided training of artificial insemination, pregnancy diagnosis and various other clinical
procedures.
Writing: The UG students are also involved in filling of various records like OPD registers and
treatment cards. Beside these they also fill their practical manuals prepared as per VCI curriculum
along with learning by doing process. Practicals are conducted with the help of flow chart and
practical manuals prepared as per VCI curriculum along with learning by doing process in the
guidance of teachers.
The college has lecture theatres equipped with latest audio-visual aids to ensure efficient
learning to the students. In the session 2019 -20 the college upgraded its class rooms into smart
classes and has also build up a Zoom room for connecting to the world through various online

• To address the problem of drug resistance, the college has been conducting research on
establishing database of antimicrobial resistance pattern of Eastern Uttar Pradesh
especially Methicillin resistance Staph aureus, Extended spectrum β lactamase and
Cabapenemase producing Enterobacteria which are the priority agents as per WHO.
 Identification of ESBL bacteria MIC Determination by E strip

• College is also working on establishing the prevalence of major animal parasites and
following prevalence of has been recorded in Ayodhya district.
Animals Parasites Incidence
Bovines Theileriosis 23.65%
Trypanosomosis 2.63%
Amphistomosis 10%
Sheep and Goat Haemonchosis 54.0%
Amphistomosis 10%
Equines Theleria equi 14.0%
Microfilariae 6.25%

• Research is being carried to develop Non-antibiotic phytogenic feed additive in poultry

farming.
• Incidence of common diseases causing mortality in poultry in Eastern Uttar Pradesh has
been studied to establish the package of practices to be followed for profitable poultry
farming.
• The college has been promoting the research on locally abundant medicinal plants and their
products namely Aonla, Morringa, Neem, Guava etc. against common parasitic diseases
and mastitis. In vitro efficacy of these plants is being established against common
pathogens of mastitis. In addition the efficacy of different essential oils has also been
adjudged against common mastitid causing isolates a step towards developing an
indigenous udder health kit.
