Zoology

About this course

Zoology is the scientific study of the animal kingdom in all its astonishing diversity. It examines the evolution, physiology, ecology, behaviour, and conservation of animals, from invertebrates and fish through to reptiles, birds, and mammals, asking how animal life has diversified over hundreds of millions of years and how animals survive, reproduce, and interact with their environments today. The discipline combines laboratory and fieldwork skills with the theoretical frameworks of evolutionary biology, ecology, and genetics, and it sits at the forefront of efforts to understand and protect biodiversity in a rapidly changing world. At the University of Nottingham, this three-year full-time programme includes a foundation year for students who need to build their scientific preparation, as well as a sandwich year, a year abroad, and work placement opportunities.
