Integrated Masters - Master of Zoology - Zoology - Conservation (Placement Year)

The Master of Zoology - Zoology - Conservation (Placement Year) course is an extended undergraduate programme which allows students to graduate either with Bachelor of Science (Honours) at the end of the third year or with a Master at the end of the fourth year. The fourth year offers a unique opportunity to conduct an extended research project either in the laboratory or in the field.

Bangor University will teach students all about traditional zoology, including taxonomy, morphology, physiology and cell biology with an emphasis upon animal ecology (biodiversity, ecology, behaviour and evolution). They will also take modules that will give them an understanding of the need for environmental conservation and how conservation objectives can be achieved. This degree establishes links between the academic learning environment and external environmental and conservation organisations in the form of project work and practical management plans.
