Zoology is central to our understanding of the world. Zoologists seek to discover the fundamental principles that underpin animal life focusing on the diversity, function and evolution of animals and thus providing the scientific basis for our knowledge both of the creatures with whom we share this planet and of ourselves.
This Department strives to create an environment that enables teaching and research to attain high levels of excellence and in which its members can achieve their full potential.
