专业概况

在这里学什么？ Zoology is literally all about animals. Students receive a thorough grounding in general zoology, exploring the diversity of animal form and function, and the evolution and ecology of the major animal groups. Through a series of individual modules, which offer an element of choice, students, will cover both invertebrate and vertebrate zoology and consider applied aspects such as parasitology, and the interaction between animals and their environment. We offer several opportunities to carry out field studies, both home and abroad, and to work in a research laboratory. Our aim is to provide you with sound and broad zoological training that covers both pure and applied aspects of animal life. The provision of a diversity of laboratory and field zoology experience is an important component of the course, as is the acquisition of transferable skills (data analysis, group work, presentational and writing skills, IT skills). You will not only enjoy the resources expected of a modern centre of animal biology but will also benefit from the proximity of an exceptional range of terrestrial, marine and freshwater habitats where field work, which is an integral part of the degree is conducted. We are unusual among British universities in having our own substantial Zoology Museum, and being part of the Environment Centre Wales, which is a partnership venture between Bangor University and the Natural Environment Research Council’s Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH). The School of Natural Sciences also has marine and freshwater aquaria, a research farm, botanical gardens, and a pigeon loft. Birds have had a high profile as model organisms in zoology, and are the focus of growing conservation concern due to the alarming decline of many species. This means that we require a new generation of professional scientists with specialised knowledge and skills relating to these animals, and also a broad zoological background. This course combines traditional zoology with an emphasis upon avian biology and diversity, and is delivered along with aspects of conservation management and practices. Students have the opportunity to undertake a field trip with an ornithological focus at the beginning of the second year. Bangor is a UK centre of research excellence in ornithology, with three full-time faculty specialising in avian evolution, behaviour, physiology and conservation, and many other staff who have ornithological interests. We also benefit from expert input to this degree from the Wales office for the British Trust for Ornithology, which is located within Bangor University. Students on the Masters pathway will have additionally have the opportunity to conduct an extended research project in the field of Zoology with Ornithology with access to expertise in the area and with the opportunity to work within a research environment.
