Yesterday Zoology was a "Life Science subject"
Today Zoology is "Life for all Science subjects"
Tomorrow Zoology will be "Life saving subject"
Zoology, the study of animals is a complex discipline that draws upon a diverse body of scientific observation and theory. On this course, one can explore theoretical and practical aspects of animal biology and biodiversity including animal behaviour, development, ecology, evolution and animal physiology. The course gives a comprehensive, up-to-date understanding of the approaches and practical experience of the techniques that zoologists use to tackle some of the most important questions in neurobiology, behavior, ecology and evolution. The lab work and class room lectures will be supported by fieldwork.
