When it comes to a degree like MFSc there is less competition in terms of opportunities as the field is not very cluttered. Not many people choose a degree like fishery as their postgraduate program.

Although not a wide number of people are a part of this field it does not mean the field does not have much to offer. The field of fishery has so many job opportunities for individuals. But, unfortunately, there is a lack of educated individuals in this field with specialised knowledge. Therefore, an individual who pursues MFSc will get several opportunities to choose from.

Yes, candidates can pursue an MFSc degree after graduating in Zoology, but they may need to meet certain prerequisites and requirements.

MFSc programs typically focus on fisheries and aquatic sciences, which are closely related to Zoology in which they both involve the study of animal biology. However, the emphasis in an MFSc programme is specifically on aquatic and fish-related topics.
