Level III Phase 2

AREA A. INSTRUCTION

Cavite State University Naic has all started when the formerly known Cavite

School of Fisheries was created under Republic Act No. 2661. The initial operation

of the school began in June 4, 1962, under Secondary Fishery Education

Curriculum. Cavite School of Fisheries was converted to a college in 1970, offering

two and a half-year Technical Education Curriculum. At the start of the school year

1974-75, the three year Fishery Education Curriculum leading to a diploma in

Fishery Technology was offered, then on June 30, 1975, DECS approved the

offering of the four-year Technological Curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Science

in Fisheries (BSF).

The Bachelor of Science in Fisheries (BSF) curriculum is appropriate for

students desiring an intensive and in-depth foundation in all essential elements of

fisheries sciences. The curriculum provides students with technical knowledge and

competencies particularly in aquaculture, aquatic resources ecology and

management, capture and postharvest fisheries.

As of today, only a draft of the new CHED CMO for BSF program is available.

Yet, the Fisheries and Marine Science Department (FMSD), who offers the BSF

program, had taken measures to revise its existing curriculum before the first

semester, AY 2018-2019 in August 2018. The revision primarily aimed to address

the changes made by the K-12 program to higher education system. Briefly, the

department had adopted the (CMO No.# s. 2017) in combination with the latest CMO

for general education courses (CMO No. 20 s. 2013).
