Hello Aspirant,

Yes, if you are a student pursuing B. Sc (Hons) Botany in Delhi University, you can choose Zoology as a minor subject based on the college's syllabus. According to the Undergraduate Curriculum Framework (UGCF 2022), part of the NEP framework, the Delhi University system allows students, the opportunity to select a minor subject that is outside of their major discipline. Zoology, is an acceptable minor choice for Botany students as both subjects belong to life sciences. Here is how to choose zoology as a minor:

1. You should first check with your college's Botany department/academic coordinator if Zoology is available as a minor subject.
2. When you register for your courses or fill your preferences (which usually occurs in the first semester), select Zoology as your minor subject of preference.
3. You may have to continue studying Zoology for the subsequent semesters to obtain the required credits for a minor.

Remember to refer to your college specific academic handbook or website, as the subjects offered may vary from each of the DU colleges.
