The Zoology (Hons) programme offered at the Bangor University not only teaches you how to care for and conserve animal life, but it also gives you the knowledge and skills to work in countless careers: from journalism to ecological consultancy, and management to scientific research.

Our zoologists work all over the world in wildlife management, environmental consultancy, local and national media, and teaching. A number have gone on to work in UK and international zoos and public aquaria, and several recent graduates have gained employment as animal care technicians in universities and industry. Others have followed their passion for exploring the natural world to conduct postgraduate studies at Bangor and other world-leading institution.
