Vector Biology and Control of Diseases(VBCD)

Title of Discipline

Ph.D.

Level (PhD/MSc)

The Ph.D. course in VBCD is a responsive training course in the field of various aspects of medical entomology and diseases transmitted by arthropods and ways to combat them. By training qualified people in this field, this course develops knowledge and increases awareness about the identification, prevention, and control of vector-borne diseases, reducing the burden of these diseases, and achieving higher and more complete levels of community and public health. Graduates of this field will participate in planning to control vectors and vector-borne diseases by transferring their knowledge, expertise, research results, and experiences to students, people, and health officials of the country.

Main goal

Advanced toxicology and biochemistry of pesticides, Insect pathology, Epidemiology of tropical and zoonotic diseases, Surveillance and management of arthropod-borne diseases, New methods, and integrated vector control, Research project management, Seminar 1, Seminar 2, Thesis
