Innovative Aquatic Animal Production and Fishery Resource Management
Curriculum philosophy
The philosophy of the Innovative Aquaculture Production and Fishery Resource Management curriculum is based on Experientialism and Competency-based Education, aiming to encourage learners to “excel in their own way, have well-being, learn for practical application, and be flexible and adaptable.” It emphasizes that effective learning must stem from hands-on practice and real-world experience, combined with step-by-step development.
This curriculum emphasizes building a strong academic foundation in fisheries science and aquatic animal production technology. Students will engage in hands-on practice in both laboratories and the field, developing skills through close collaboration with farmers and fishing communities. It integrates knowledge with the application of innovations in aquatic animal production technology, fisheries resource management, and modern learning models that address the needs of contemporary society.
The instructors in the course act as facilitators of learning, aiming to encourage learners to create and apply innovations for sustainable aquaculture and fisheries resource management.
The ultimate goal of this curriculum is to produce “innovator graduates” who have the potential for critical thinking and problem-solving, and who can use innovation to develop aquaculture and fishery resource management to efficiently and sustainably meet the needs of the community, society, and the country.
Objective
- To develop graduates with knowledge, understanding, and skills in aquaculture science and efficient fishery resource management.
- To produce graduates who can apply knowledge of science, technology, and digital innovation to analyze, solve problems, and develop approaches for aquaculture and sustainable fishery resource management
- To produce graduates with the ability to adapt, continuously learn new things, create innovations, and work well with others.
- To produce graduates with a sense of social and environmental responsibility, professional ethics, and the ethical and sustainable use of innovation.
