**Our new BSc (Hons) Zoology with Marine Biology is the first of its kind in the Northwest, managing to strike a fine balance between theoretical knowledge and practical skill learning.** If you want to develop the practical skills required to have a positive impact on our natural environment, then this course is ideal for you as it combines key zoological principles with specialist knowledge of the marine environment. You will gain a systematic understanding of the key aspects of biodiversity and conservation, learning how they apply to the marine environment. Practical training is particularly relevant and will be delivered during two residential field trips in coastal locations. The first one, in the second year of study, will be carried out in Scotland, at the renowned FSC Millport Field Station. The second trip will be organised at the beginning of the third year, in Kavala, Greece, in collaboration with the national Fisheries Research Institute. Features • A wide variety of field trips are available, both in the UK and international • Apply your knowledge in the field through an optional placement year • Tailor your modules to your interests, in areas such as Wildlife Behavioural Ecology, Conservation Biology, and Veterinary and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases
