与传统动物科学学位课程所涵盖的物种相比，本课程为您提供了一个学习范围更广的物种的独特机会。您的学习将侧重于动物园物种的生物学，即非家庭和非英国野生动植物，以及如何将其应用于圈养种群管理和保护的各个方面。我们与英国的动物园和野生动植物园有着紧密的联系，您将可以使用我们校园内的现代动物馆，该馆可容纳约150种40种不同的动物，实地考察包括动物园参观和前往泽西动物园，毛里求斯和马达加斯加的可选项目考察。 br> <br>本课程将使您对动物生物学有充分的了解和了解，并将其应用于迅速发展的动物产业。讲座涵盖以下主要
This course represents a unique opportunity for you to study a wider range of species than those covered in traditional animal science degrees. Your learning will focus on the biology of exotic species, namely non-domestic and non-UK wildlife. Your lectures will cover major scientific principles, including anatomy and physiology, behaviour, genetics, ecology and nutrition. Youll apply these principles to the management and conservation of zoo species. You will have access to our modern on-campus Animal Unit which houses around 250 animals of 70 different species. This course will give you a sound knowledge and understanding of animal biology, with a particular focus on zoo species.<br><br>We offer three animal science degrees, each with a different focus: BSc (Hons) Zoo Biology (this course) / BSc (Hons) Zoo Biology (with foundation year) - focuses on captive housed zoo animals and exotic species. BSc (Hons) Animal Biology / BSc (Hons) Animal Biology (with foundation year) - focuses on managed domestic species such as companion, working and farm animals. BSc (Hons) Zoology / BSc (Hons) Zoology (with foundation year) - covers a diverse range of invertebrate and vertebrate species in relation to their biology, evolution, taxonomy and identification.
