These opportunities allow students to gain valuable hands-on experience and bridge the gap between academic knowledge and real-world environmental challenges.

The curriculum is designed not only to deepen students’ understanding of animal biology but also to equip them with the skills needed to address critical environmental issues. With a strong foundation in research, innovation, and hands-on learning, the department prepares students to become leaders in Zoology and environmental conservation, committed to shaping a sustainable future for our planet.
