Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Zoology

Zoology covers all aspects of animal biology and, as such, covers a fascinating range of often highly diverse topics. The modern zoologist needs to be the master of many disciplines. The University of Cumbria's degree course has been designed by professional zoologists with a real understanding of what the world needs from zoologists.

The University of Cumbria's hands-on course provides an understanding of wildlife monitoring techniques using professional equipment and covers a broad range of topics including evolution, ecology and conservation.
