About the Institution:
The foundation of the Fisheries College under Assam Agricultural University (AAU) began in 1982 when the Region-II Committee of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) convened at AAU’s Jorhat main campus. During this meeting, it was decided that AAU would prepare a proposal to establish a Fisheries College, addressing the growing need for specialized education in fisheries within Assam. By 1985, AAU had formulated and submitted a detailed proposal to ICAR and the Government of Assam, which was subsequently approved. ICAR endorsed the proposal, allocating Rs. 240 lakhs for the establishment of the college under the VIIth Five-Year Plan.
