Academic structure
Every department here exists to serve one sector — the animals, farms and food systems that southern Punjab depends on.

Established as a department in 2020 and since elevated to an institute. Offers BBA (4-year), BBA (2-year) and MS Business Administration from a purpose-built block with its own library and computer labs.
Business degreesDiplomas, short courses and hands-on training for livestock and poultry farmers, veterinary staff and para-veterinary personnel — including emergency extension services delivered at farmers' doorsteps.
Training & outreachBiological sciences teaching and research spanning biotechnology, biochemistry, genetics and zoology.
