A320 Aquatic Animal Health and Nutrition
The module aims to equip students with an understanding of fish health issues and feed nutrition requirements that are relevant to aquaculture.
Students will experimentally formulate feeds and critically assess their performance while also integrating biosecurity fundamentals in their experimental design. They will be introduced to common aquatic diseases in aquaculture, including disease diagnosis, control, and treatment. Students will also study concepts of nutritional and health science and understand how to apply these concepts in different life cycle stages of fish and crustaceans.
