B.SC (HONS) ZOOLOGY WITH MARINE BIOLOGY

The new BSc (hons) Zoology with Marine Biology is the first of its kind in the North West, managing to strike a fine balance between theoretical knowledge and practical skill learning. Thanks to the supportive learning environment, you will gain a systematic understanding of key aspects of biodiversity, and conservation, learning how these apply to the marine environment. The curriculum is contemporary and will enhance employability through the University’s industry collaborations.

Practical training is particularly relevant and will be delivered during two residential field trips in coastal locations. The first one, in the second year of study, will be carried out in Scotland, at the renowned Millport Field Station. The second trip will be an overseas residential course that will take place in the 3rd year.

You will:

• Gain significant practical training in zoology and marine biology through two residential field trips
• Develop extensive knowledge of zoological science with a focus on the marine environment
• Strike a balance between theoretical knowledge and practical skills
