Post Graduate Research Institute in Animal Sciences

The official page describes postgraduate research, instructional-farm and livestock-training functions at PGRIAS; specific degree offerings should be checked in the current university programme catalogue.

TANUVAS lists the Post Graduate Research Institute in Animal Sciences at Kattupakkam among its constituent units. The university’s official page states that the site began as a sheep farm in 1957 and was upgraded as a postgraduate research institute in 2011. Its functions include instructional farming, maintaining livestock and poultry units, research on breeding, housing, feeding and disease prevention, practical training for interns, and demonstrating scientific farming practices to farmers. This is a research and instructional institute rather than a conventional undergraduate college.
