Bachelor of Science in Marine Zoology-Hons

The planet cannot survive without its oceans. Our mission is to nurture and train you as a marine zoologist with the skills to solve global challenges. You’ll enjoy a unique experience at Newcastle University and develop the skills and knowledge for a successful career.

A career in Marine Zoology is perfect if you are passionate about the environment, love the ocean, want to make a difference in the world and are driven to stand out in a competitive industry.

You will address key challenges including:

• loss of marine biodiversity
• marine conservation
• genetics
• cellular and sub-organism processes
• adaptations of marine organisms to their environment

You’ll explore a variety of marine animals from the diverse aquatic ecology of the North Sea to overseas ecosystems. You’ll also investigate animal behaviour in the wild, which requires time at sea with close observation.
