To successfully complete Diploma in Aquaculture you have to compulsorily complete BAQ1 and BAQP1 as listed above and opt for either STREAM I (BAQ2 and BAQL1) or STREAM II (BAQ3 and BAQL2).
Let us explain to you more clearly in the following manner:
STREAM I : Courses BAQ1+BAQP1+BAQ2+BAQL1(total 28 credits)
STREAM II : Courses BAQ1+BAQP1+BAQ3+BAQL2 (total 28 credits)
Those interested in both the streams of Aquaculture (Freshwater as well as Coastal Aquaculture) would have to first finish the Diploma in one stream (either Stream I or Stream II) and then join the other stream at half the fees and for half the duration of time as compulsory BAQ 1 and BAQP 1 would have already been completed with the first Stream. A Certificate would be given on completion of the second Stream apart from the Diploma.
IGNOU will try to make every effort to conduct Laboratory Courses in the programme at the Study Centre chosen by you. But in case of any difficulty, you may be advised to attend the Laboratory Courses at some other Study Centre. You should be prepared for such a situation.
