Golden Jubilee Celebrations of the faculty
Golden Jubilee Closing Ceremony: A Grand Finale
The Golden Jubilee Committee of the Faculty hosted a magnificent Closing Ceremony on 30 December 2025, marking the culmination of half a century of academic excellence. The stage was elegantly designed to represent the Faculty’s eight core academic disciplines, providing a meaningful and symbolic backdrop for the evening’s celebrations.
Honouring Excellence and Dedication: Following the opening of the Golden Jubilee Commemorative Fisheries Science Block and the new Faculty Boardroom, portraits of former Deans, who have shaped and guided the Faculty since its inception, were unveiled, paying tribute to their enduring legacy and leadership.
Jubilarian Recognition: A total of 75 staff members, including 23 academics, were honoured in recognition of 25 or more years of dedicated and distinguished service to the Faculty.
Celebrating Talent and Achievement: Medals were awarded to the winners of the Golden Jubilee Sports Carnival, alongside prizes for a diverse range of ten academic and creative competitions organised as part of the Jubilee celebrations.
A Vibrant Cultural Showcase: The event was attended by over 500 distinguished guests, including current staff and students, retired faculty members, former Vice-Chancellors and Deans, and representatives of the alumni. The evening was enlivened by outstanding student performances, featuring a graceful Welcome Dance, a captivating thematic dance drama, and a series of vocal presentations that showcased the creativity and artistic talent of the student community.
Commemorating the Legacy: A key highlight of the evening was the official launch of the Golden Jubilee Souvenir Magazine. This comprehensive 160-page publication meticulously chronicles the Faculty’s journey, highlighting major historical milestones, infrastructure development, academic achievements, curriculum evolution, and the impact of significant research and development initiatives. The magazine also records the Faculty’s remarkable achievement in attracting over one billion rupees in national and international R & D funding during the past five years, as well as securing numerous national and international honours—even amidst the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent fuel and economic crises.
