Zoology

Welcome to the the Zoology major at Mars Hill University! Our program offers a hands-on approach to learning, providing you with valuable laboratory and field experiences. In our labs, you will conduct experiments and explore animal anatomy, biodiversity, behavior, and physiology. These practical activities will enhance your understanding of the natural world. Field experiences will take you out of the classroom and into the world to explore, observe, and study animals in their natural habitats, developing your research skills and understanding of animal behavior. Additionally, our students are encouraged to pursue internship opportunities that allow you to gain real-world experience in various partner organizations and research institutions. A degree in Zoology opens up diverse career opportunities, such as wildlife biologist, zookeeper, research scientist, and conservation officer. With the increasing need for wildlife conservation, studying Zoology will equip you with the skills to make a positive impact on our planet’s animal species. Join us in the Zoology major and embark on an exciting journey of discovery and conservation!
