Zoology explores the diverse world of animals, examining their anatomy, physiology, genetics, and survival strategies across various habitats. This field provides essential insights for sustaining ecosystems, managing pests and diseases, protecting biodiversity, and safeguarding threatened species. Our Biological Sciences (Zoology) program caters to those passionate about animal biology, offering an interdisciplinary curriculum that leverages the School's research strengths. Alongside exploring animal evolution and diversity, students can delve into ecology, physiology, and genetics. The program highlights our specialized knowledge in animal behavior and neuroscience, incorporating both subjects into the coursework. With content shaped by our faculty's cutting-edge research—many of whom are field leaders—students engage with contemporary, globally relevant topics in an active research setting. The degree emphasizes hands-on fieldwork, equipping students with practical research skills through ongoing projects and optional specialized field courses in the UK and abroad.
