Training<br />
Training of graduate students has always been the pride of VCRU. Since 1975, more<br />
than 65 graduate students, both local <strong>and</strong> international, have completed their M.Sc./<br />
Ph.D in the field of vector biology/control <strong>and</strong> urban entomology. Also, more than 225<br />
undergraduates have conducted their honours year projects with VCRU since 1975.<br />
Since 1992, VCRU has been conducting an annual short-term workshop on the biology<br />
<strong>and</strong> control of urban pests with participants from government institutions <strong>and</strong> the<br />
pesticide industries from Asian countries.<br />
<strong>Research</strong> Collaboration<br />
VCRU is actively seeking collaboration with local, regional <strong>and</strong> international research<br />
