Overview | Central Institute Of Fisheries Education, Mumbai

The Central Institute of Fisheries Education (CIFE) was established by the Government of India, with the assistance of FAO/UNDP on 6th June 1961. The main purpose of its establishment was to impart post-graduate education and training largely to the inservice fisheries personnel of the country to support fisheries developmental activities. The CIFE started functioning at the Institute of Science Building in Bombay (Mumbai, now) and initially, the academic activities were organized in three divisions viz. Fishery Biology, Fishery Technology, and Fishery Economics for conducting a two-year postgraduate course for a Diploma in Fisheries Science (D.F.Sc.). The Institute was shifted to a rented building at Masjid Bunder, Bombay in 1964. The Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, at this stage, actively collaborated with the Govt. of India and helped in strengthening infrastructural facilities at CIFE by providing sophisticated equipment together with expertise of high standard. The fishing vessel, MFV Harpodon received FAO/UNDP assistance in 1968 and provided basic facilities for on-board training in the areas such as marine fishing, fishery biology, and oceanography. The Institute headquarters moved to its own building at Versova in March 1967 and acquired its first center, the Inland Fisheries Training Centre, Barrackpore in West Bengal from Central Inland Fisheries Research Institute (CIFRI) in October 1967. The Institute also took control of the erstwhile Fisheries Extension Centres of the Govt. of India and organized them as sub-centers for Inland Fisheries Operatives Training at Agra and Hyderabad. These centers were subsequently shifted to Chinhat near Lucknow (UP) and Kakinada (AP).
