Zoology (with integrated year studying abroad)

About this course

Zoology is the systematic scientific study of animals across all their forms, from the molecular processes within cells to the dynamics of entire ecosystems. It encompasses animal physiology, behaviour, genetics, ecology, evolution and conservation, using a combination of field research, laboratory investigation and quantitative analysis to build understanding of the animal kingdom and humanity's relationship to it. At a time of accelerating biodiversity loss and climate disruption, the scientific skills of zoologists have never been more urgently needed. At Aberystwyth University, this four-year programme develops a solid foundation of transferable scientific skills recognised by Royal Society of Biology accreditation. The extended duration reflects the depth of training, with the final year typically including independent research at a level that connects you to the university's resea
