Discontinued (Sep 2025) -M.Sc. in Agriculture (Agricultural Microbiology) 

at Kerala Agricultural University, Thrissur

Kerala Agricultural University BSc admission is completely entrance-based. The university offers several specialisations in the BSc course and accepts different entrance examination scores. The accepted entrance exams are KEAM Medical, ICAR CUET (the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) conducted for admissions to undergraduate programmes in agriculture and allied sciences at various Agricultural Universities (AUs) in India, etc. Therefore, candidates are not allowed to get direct admission to BSc courses at KAU. 

Officially, the data on the highest packages offered to BSc courses at Kerala Agricultural University has not been released. However, as per the verified Shiksha reviews of BSc students and alumni of the BSc course at KAU, the highest package offered by the university is INR 18 LPA. Candidates must note that this does not represent the complete feedback from all BSc students of Kerala University and its affiliated colleges.

Kerala Agricultural University offers various specialisations spread across different fields of agriculture and allied sciences. At the time of application, students must choose their choice of specialisation. Mentioned below are the specialisations offered by the university:

• Forestry
• Agriculture 
• Climate Change and Environmental Science, etc. 

No, KEAM scores are not important to get admission into the BTech course at Kerala Agricultural University because the university also accepts relevant scores from ICAR CUET for admission to BTech. However, the university gives 80% of the seats on the basis of KEAM engineering rank secured by the students, and 20% of the seats are reserved for the students who achieved valid ICAR CUET scores. 

The university intends to provide great placement support for students by inviting prominent recruiters to the university to locate candidates for campus recruitment programme. Also the university recognise the students by their keen interest with relatable strong foundation in respective fields and Thus placement cell provides the recruitments accordingly. The highest package still at Kerala Agricultural University is nearly 4LPA. But the package offered to UG and PG courses differently, just like:

• UG :- 2.3 LPA - 3.6 LPA
• PG :- 3.3 LPA - 4.1 LPA
