UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE PROGRAMS

I. INTRODUCTION
Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU), rated as the best Agricultural
University in India by Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi, is an
institute of excellence for higher education in Agricultural and allied subjects.
TNAU had begun as an Agricultural School at Saidapet, Chennai in 1876 and
blossomed as a College in Coimbatore, during 1906. In 1920, the college was affiliated
to the University of Madras with the introduction of a three-years degree programme.
Till 1946, the Agricultural College and Research Institute, Coimbatore was the only
institute for agricultural education for the whole of South India. In 1958, it was
recognized as a Postgraduate Centre for offering Masters and Doctoral degrees. The
Agricultural College and Research Institute, Madurai was established in 1965. These
two colleges formed the nucleus of the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, when it
was established in 1971 to offer four years B.Sc. (Agri.) degree programme.
In the year 1972, the degree programs viz., B.Sc. (Horticulture) and
B. E. (Agriculture) were started. In furtherance, in 1979, the faculty of Horticulture
was established. To nurture the home grown innovations, in 1980, B.Sc. (Home
Science) was started at Madurai campus. B.Sc. (Home Science) is renamed as B.Sc.
(Food Science and Nutrition) from the year 2015. The third Agricultural College was
started at Killikulam in 1984 and the fourth at Navalur Kuttappattu, Tiruchirappalli in
1989. An exclusive B.Sc. (Forestry) program was started during 1985 at Coimbatore
campus and later relocated to Forest College and Research Institute, Mettupalayam
during 1991.
Later on, the B.Sc. (Horticulture) programme was shifted to Periyakulam during
1990. The B.E. (Agriculture) was shifted to Agricultural Engineering College and
Research Institute, Kumulur in 1992 and later renamed as B.Tech. (Agricultural
Engineering) in the year 2002. A new Horticultural College and Research Institute for
Women at Navalur Kuttappattu, Tiruchirappalli, offering B.Sc. (Horticulture) was
established during 2011. A unique programme, B.Sc. (Sericulture) was started during
2011 at Agricultural College and Research Institute, Coimbatore and is being offered
now at Forest College and Research Institute, Mettupalayam.
In the backdrop of changing agricultural situation and developments in science
and technology, TNAU introduced unique technology programs viz., B.Tech. (Food
Process Engineering) during 1998, B.Tech. (Biotechnology) and B.Tech. (Horticulture)
during 2002, B.Tech. (Energy and Environmental Engineering) during 2004 and B.Tech.
(Bioinformatics) during 2006. Owing to the developments in agricultural and
information sciences and to capitalize on these potentialities, two courses, viz.,
5
B.S. (Agribusiness Management) and B.Tech. (Agricultural Information Technology)

were started during 2007.
Three new agricultural colleges viz., Agricultural College and Research
Institute, Eachankottai, Thanjavur; Agricultural College & Research Institute,
Valavachanur, Thiruvannamalai and Agricultural College & Research Institute
Kudumianmalai, Pudukkottai were started during 2014. Moreover, twelve private
colleges affliated to TNAU offer B.Sc. (Ag.) and B.Sc. (Horti.) courses whose details
are given in Table 2.
At present, TNAU is offering the following 13 Undergraduate degree programs
of four year duration (eight semesters).
