Bachelor's Degree
A zoology degree offers students a comprehensive exploration of animal biology, examining everything from genetic foundations to entire ecological systems. The program covers animal physiology, behavior, growth patterns, geographic distribution, and evolutionary processes. At Michigan State University, undergraduates can opt for either a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science in zoology. The BA track suits those aiming to blend zoological studies with substantial coursework in non-scientific disciplines, or preparing for science-related careers in policy, law, business, or media. Compared to the BS program, the BA degree mandates additional credits in humanities and social sciences.
