Zoology B.Sc
Course description
This three-year course explores areas such as population and community ecology, animal conservation and biodiversity, molecular ecology, evolution, and behavior. We have been at the forefront of important recent developments in the study of natural selection and the outcome of evolution at the individual and population levels.
You'll develop skills that are central to scientific investigation, including observation, testing of ideas, analysis and critical interpretation. In the third year, you'll apply these skills to your own research.
In the first and second years, you can choose modules run by our other two biology departments, Molecular Biology and Biotechnology and Biomedical Sciences. You may need A Level Chemistry to take these modules.
There are optional field courses in the Peak District National Park (UK), Anglesey (UK), Ireland, Arctic Sweden, the Mediterranean, Tanzania and tropical rainforest in Malaysian Borneo in the summer between your second and third levels.
If you want to study zoology, but don't meet the entry requirements to go straight into the first year, our Biosciences with a Foundation Year could be for you. After successfully completing the one-year programme, you'll progress onto the first year of your chosen degree.
