Department of Zoology Department of Zoology offers courses for graduate, post graduate and doctoral studies. We teach and research whole organism biology from genes to ecosystems including: animal behavior, ecology, environmental science, evolution, development, physiology, parasitology and wildlife biology. We aim to provide a supportive and open atmosphere for everyone who works here, staff, students and visitors alike. We value all members of the Department and are working hard to enhance our diversity Vision To be an innovative and responsive to the educational and self development needs of the students To ensure the learning opportunities and promote the scientific and professional temperament To contribute to society through the pursuit of education, learning, and research at the highest levels of excellence.
