The combined Department of Zoology-Entomology of the erstwhile Punjab Agricultural University and subsequently of the Haryana Agricultural University functioned for almost seven years but a major thrust was on plant protection especially toxicology. In order to strengthen the role of Zoology in education and to exploit its areas, a need was felt to develop this discipline for evolving technology and serving as base for increasing agricultural production. Thus, an independent Department of Zoology came into existence on October 26, 1971 with eminent scientists and academician in chair like late dynamic Prof. R. P. Kapil and Prof. R.B. Mathur who nurtured it with their academic excellence and vision. The department offers M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Zoology. The department also caters to the requirements of UG programs of College of Agriculture, Hisar, Kaul and College of Home Science. The department has so far produced 165 M.Sc. and Ph.D. scholars some of them occupying high positions at the national level. At present, there are 12 M.Sc. students and 14 Ph.D students. Most of our students have been getting fellowship like POSE, CSIR, ICAR, DST (INSPIRE), RGNP and merit fellowships. One student got third best thesis award and five students were selected for HPSC. The department is having a highly trained and talented faculty that consists of two Professors and two Assistant Professors. Presently the faculty of this department is working on the molecular characterization of plant and stored mites, quantitative and qualitative losses due to mites and rodent pests, fisheries, fruit eating bats, birds and vermiculture. Along with this, work is also going on the effect of pesticides and heavy metals on earthworms.
