Objectives of the Course

The main objective of the course is to make students understand the principles of fish diseases and aquaculture.

Course Content

This course covers all rearing techniques and the use of infrastructure components for sea bream, sea bass, trout, and carp from the broodstock stage to market-size production. In addition, it addresses biological factors causing diseases in fish—particularly bacteria and parasites—including their morphology, nutrition, and pathogenicity; the importance of fish diseases; definitions and types of diseases; causes of mortality; definitions and types of infection; routes of transmission; disease diagnosis; submission of diseased fish samples to laboratories; and vaccination methods.
