动物学理学士（荣誉）

动物学是对动物的各个层面的研究，从其进化起源，分子和细胞生物学到其行为，生态和进化。粮食安全，外来入侵物种和生物多样性保护等许多全球性挑战正在影响地球，通过对动物学的研究，您将学到可以帮助解决这些现实问题的实用技能。动物学家在实验室和现场进行研究，以解决保护生物学，动物福利，农业，疾病和政府政策方面的广泛问题。通过在利兹大学攻读动物学学士学位，您将有机会参与了解动物如何与环境互动，有机体如何在各种生态系统中发挥作用以及我们如何尝试避免对动物的破坏等方面的作用。 <br> <br>在这门课程中，您通常有机会
In a world facing critical global challenges such as climate change, food insecurity, and the need for biodiversity conservation, knowledge and practical skills in Zoology are in high demand. As a Zoology student at the University of Leeds, you’ll study everything from animal physiology and behaviour, to how animals are shaped by evolution and their environment. Through practical and field work, you’ll explore the effects of climate change on wild animals, how they adapt and develop methods for sustainable livestock production. Along the way, you’ll develop your skills in teamwork, independent working, problem-solving and communication skills – all highly valued by employers. This 3 year BSc can also be converted into an integrated Masters (MBiol) with an optional additional year of specialist training, to study advanced research topics and carry out your own extended research project.Course highlightsTake part in zoology specific field courses looking at diverse habitats within the UK Choose optional field courses to study sustainable urban ecology and African ecology in South Africa. Conduct a research project in the final year of your degree. Experience extensive practical work from the lab to the field, from the use of cutting-edge molecular techniques in science, to animal physiology, sustainable livestock farming, and biodiversity survey techniques. Research-led advanced topic modules in your final year cover diverse topics such as genetics, conservation science, evolution and animal behaviour. Our year in industry programme allows you to gain experience working with organisations, developing new skills for your CV. Experience life and learning in a different country through our study abroad programme, where you'll gain fresh perspectives and develop skills valued by employers. Flexible degreesZoology is a specialist degree within the School of Biology which offers you flexibility throughout your time studying at Leeds.All of our biology degree courses share compulsory modules in the first year. A key benefit of having a common first year is that at the end of year 1, there are opportunities to transfer onto degree courses in Biology, Ecology and Conservation Biology and Genetics, subject to approval. Additional degree courses may be available depending on your academic background.FacilitiesYour degree will be based in the Faculty of Biological Sciences, one of the largest centres for biological sciences research in the UK and home to cutting-edge research facilities. The course makes use of the UK’s largest and most advanced facility for research into pig nutrition, behaviour, welfare & health, and production systems, the National Pig Centre. You’ll also have access to field research stations based in Europe and Africa to help you learn about ecology and behaviour in natural surroundings. Leeds is just a short distance from the Yorkshire Dales, the Peak District and has easy access to the Lake District, North York Moors and the spectacular Yorkshire coast, providing plenty of opportunities to work and learn outdoors. Ecology and Wildlife Conservation online courseGet a taste of Zoology BSc with our exceptional online course, Ecology and Wildlife Conservation. Designed for anyone with an interest in the subject matter, this short course is particularly useful for high school students who would like to study Biology, Zoology, or Ecology and Conservation at University level.With this two-week programme, you will discover how conservation biologists and the study of ecosystems can help protect wildlife and conserve the natural world. You’ll have the chance to explore the impact of wind farms on populations of seabirds, and investigate highly diverse ecosystems such as coral reefs.Are you ready to take your first steps towards protecting our world’s incredible biodiversityFind out moreClick here for a full list of our online courses.
