The Bachelor of Science (Animal Biology) delves into the study of terrestrial, avian, and aquatic animals. It examines their chemical and physical compositions, evolution, behaviour, physiology, ecology, and biodiversity. With an estimated 1-2 million animal species, only a fraction are known. This degree emphasizes the vast diversity of animal life and its implications for agriculture, conservation, veterinary science, education, and public policy. Students engage in both field and laboratory learning, focusing on global challenges and human impact on animal futures.
