Study animals in their natural habitat – gaining expertise in evolution, physiology, behaviour and conservation – with our BSc Zoology degree. Not many degrees give you the opportunity to get your hands on a lion’s skull at the University’s own museum, but with our three-year BSc Zoology course, that’s just a tiny part of what’s on offer.Zoology is the science of animals: whether you’re passionate about one particular group of animals, or interested in the subject as a whole, we’ll help you get the most out of your degree.
