1. BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Department of Aquaculture Division was original established in May 1994, belonged to Faculty of Animal Science. In 2005, Hue University has decided to establish the Faculty of Fisheries with the task of training the staff highly qualified to meet the fishery development demands in Vietnam and the Central region particularly.
Our research and training focuses on environment, reproduction, aquatic health, nutrition and feed, aquatic animal resources relating to strategies for sustainable aquaculture in Vietnam.
Since 1994, Faculty of Fisheries has over 2000 alumni. At the present, Faculty of Fisheries has over 1200 undergraduates, 20 master students.
2. ORGANIZATION
Currently, the Faculty of Fisheries has four departments:
Department of Basic Science in Aquaculture
Department of Aquaculture
Department of Fish Pathology
Department of Aquatic Resources and Environmental Management
In addition, the Faculty of Fisheries also has one center for practicing and Phu Thuan Fisheries for extra practice for students
We have grown steadily over the last 20 years to our present size of more than 40 academic staffs holding different title and degrees (1 Associate professor, 7 PhD and 33 masters).
3. TRAINING PROGRAMS
Faculty of Fisheries currently offers several programs for different degrees in Aquaculture, Aquatic animal Pathology, and Aquatic animal resources
3.1. Undergraduate
We offer 3 undergraduate specialization programs consisting of
1. Aquaculture
2. Fish Pathology
3. Aquatic Resources Management
3.2. Polytechnic Diploma
Currently, we offer one program of Polytechnic Diploma Degree.
Specialization: Aquaculture
Undergraduate program for Polytechnic Diploma Holders
For Polytechnic Diploma Holders, The faculty offers 1 transfer Undergraduate program with specialization: Aquaculture
3.3. Master
The Faculty of Fisheries offers 2 year- Master program in Aquaculture.
At the moment, Faculty of Fisheries has been prepared for offering the PhD program in Aquaculture.
Continuing professional Development
We regularly offer a wide range of aquaculture-related training courses for national participants, especially on:
1. Seed production and farming of freshwater and marine water species
2. Mollusk Farming
3. Integrated culture/ Polyculture
4. Aquatic animal health management
4. SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH
In recent years (2010-2015), Faculty of Fisheries has conducted more than 150 studies in different fields and pulished a large number of scientific papers. Furthermore, our researches have also been funded by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and The Ministry of Science and Technology to carry out successful studies on applied biotechnology in artificial reproduction and fish disease management in aquaculture.
The results of recent studies on the endocrine of fish provide scientific data for completing the artificial reproduction of economic species in Central Vietnam. Rabbit fish (Siganus guttatus), banana shrimp (Penaeus semisulcatus), Day fish (Ciprinus centralus) have been successful artificial reproduced at the Faculty Hatcheries supplying more fingerlings in order to contribute the diversity of farmed species in sustainable development of aquaculture in Central Vietnam.
Especially, Trau Bokashi which has been studied by our staff has been widely applied in the treatment and prevention of bacterial shrimp disease in Vietnam. This product has been awarded National prize and has been commercially marketed.
5. BUILDING HUMAN RESOURCES IN THE FACULTY
The Faculty has been creating a positive environment to promote high quality teaching and research activities. Providing the staff with some expenses on participating in conferences and workshops. The faculty pays a great attention to the professional development of our staff, aiming at the high quality and prestige. At the moment, 12 members of the Faculty are training for PhD in Belgium, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Germany.
We also encourage our staff to take part in scientific research and publication of their work, apply active teaching methodologies, and train the students to become skilled engineers in Aquaculture and Fisheries
