• If a student is interested in a career exploring and understanding the lives of animals, they will be in good company alongside Charles Darwin, Dian Fossey, Jane Goodall, and David Attenborough.
  • Zoology is closely connected to subjects such as cell biology and genetics. A student could choose to specialize in areas such as animal behavior, wildlife biology or ecology, and conservation.
  • Fieldwork is an important part of zoology. It is a practical subject and the university will give you plenty of opportunities to learn and practice both in the lab and the field.
  • In your second year, they will take a week-long field trip to north Devon to experience both marine and terrestrial zoology, the costs of which are included in your course fees.
  • On the optional field trips, you might experience rutting red deer on the island of Rum; marine biology in Scotland; world-class zoos in the Netherlands; wildlife and ecology in Africa; and diving and marine biology overseas. YouÕll need to pay for these optional trips.
