MESSAGE FROM DEAN
The College of Veterinary Sciences & Animal Husbandry, Central Agricultural
University, Selesih, Aizawl was established in 1998 and has completed 27 years. During
these 26 years of existence, the College has progressed a lot. All the departments have fully
equipped laboratories to impart best training to the undergraduates, post graduates and to
conduct advance research in the field of animal health care and extension education. At
present we have M.V.Sc. programme in all 16 disciplines and Ph.D. programme in 11
disciplines. Since establishment, 23 batches of undergraduates (889 B.V.Sc. & A.H.
graduates), and 368 M.V.Sc. and 15 Ph.D. postgraduates have rolled out. It is a matter of
great satisfaction that all the passed out graduates are either employed, self-employed or
undergoing higher education in National Institute and Universities in India or aboard. I am
happy to note that our students who graduated from this college are undergoing Masters or
Doctoral programme elsewhere, have shown excellent performance. The placement record of
our passed out Veterinary graduates is very satisfactory. The placement of our passed-out
students are: Agricultural Research Scientist (ARS) – 18; Assistant Professor – 50; Civil
Servant – 29; Veterinary Officer – 235; Programme Coordinator & Subject Matter Specialist
– 30, RVC & CPO – 05 and others (employed in banking sector, farm managers, entrepreneur
for the year 2024-25 etc.) – 128 while other passed-out students are either private
practitioners or pursuing their higher studies. This speaks the dedication of our faculty and
the devotion of our students.
The College is developing with a fast pace in terms of excellent infrastructure and
facilities, manpower and intake capacity of students. The University is making all possible
efforts to fill vacant positions of teaching and non-teaching staff. It should always be
remembered that Institutions are not known by the building but are known by their graduates
and the teachers and Scientist. Therefore, we have to commit ourselves to the important role
that College of Veterinary Sciences and Animal Husbandry, Selesih has to play in improving
animal, human and environmental health and animal production programmes in the North
Eastern Hill region in particular and at National and Global level in general.
The development of the College is possible due to the able guidance and blessings of
successive Hon’ble Vice-Chancellors and the hard and concerted efforts of the staffs and
students. With good infrastructure, a young, dynamic and competent faculty and disciplined
students, the college is sure to take the responsibilities and challenges of the future.
