Programme Type:

Course Overview

You will explore the animal kingdom and study a range of topics such as physiology, genetics, evolution, ecology, animal behaviour, and data interpretation along with animal taxonomy and phylogenetics.

What you'll study

You will explore evolutionary processes and adaptations, including natural selection and the associated DNA coding. This is used to support the study of taxonomy and classification, animal form and function, ecology, and environmental impact.

You will look at the hierarchical organisation, from molecules to cells, to tissues to organisms, to populations to ecosystems. You will also be trained in the identification of a significant range of species using a variety of methods. Furthermore, you will learn to manage and handle taxonomic data and apply your findings to the broader issues of conservation.
