Home - B.Sc. in Zoology

Zoology makes a huge impact on our world through the scientific study of the evolution, anatomy, physiology, behavior, habitats, and health of animals and humans. It includes diverse approaches such as Molecular Genetics, Human Genetics, Biochemistry, Wild-life and field Ecology. By studying animals we develop a better understanding of how we, ourselves, function and interact with the world around us.
