== History ==<br />
[[File:Accer.jpg|thumb|College as of 2 November 2012]]<br />
When the course was inaugurated on 6 September 2010, the first batch had their initial classes at College of Fisheries (CoF) Panangad, [[Ernakulam]]. After CoF was delinked from the KAU to [[Kerala University of Fisheries and Ocean Studies]] in 2010, the students were temporarily transferred to a building located at KAU's main campus in Vellanikara, alongside the [[NH-47]], with GSLHV Prasad Rao as the first special officer. The students remained there till 2015, almost a five-year gap, during which the college grew to its full potential of five batches. The new college building was inaugurated by [[Oommen Chandy]], then Chief Minister of Kerala on 28 September 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kau.in/news/infrastructure-facilities-inaugurated-28092015 |title=Infrastructure facilities inaugurated by Hon.
