The courses for the B. Sc. (Agri.) degree programme are broadly classified into the following sub-groups:
  1. Crop Production
  2. Plant Sciences
  3. Plant Protection
  4. Agricultural Extension and Economics
  5. Supporting courses
  6. Rural Agricultural Work Experience (RAWE)
The courses proposed under each sub-group are inter-related courses which also include a few basic courses to give adequate information on fundamental aspects. These basic courses are also offered by the concerned disciplines of the Faculty of Agriculture.
