Dr. Tanveer Ahmed
Assistant Professor, HEC Approved Supervisor
PhD (Zoology) University of Agriculture, Faisalabad

Dr. Tanveer Ahmed completed his PhD degree in Zoology specializing in Fish Population Genetics in January 2019 from the University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan. He has research experience of more than two years in HEC funded research project and served as teaching assistant in University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. He has participated in many National and International Conferences, Symposia, workshops and seminars. His main goal is to achieve excellence through high-quality education and research that is relevant to local, regional and national needs, and through coordination with leading researchers and educators both in Pakistan and abroad to explore, understand and conserve animal diversity.
