Undergraduate Majors
The Major in Zoology
Aims to provide a detailed understanding and appreciation of the
interrelatedness of the processes of evolution, natural selection and ecosystem functions,
as well as the structural and functional organization of animals and animal-like protists.
The graduate will also be equipped with the resources, capacity and foundation to further
explore the animal kingdom.
