Description
The Zoology Level 3 Advanced Diploma offers a detailed curriculum designed to deepen your understanding of animal biology and behaviour. You will start by exploring the history and core concepts of zoology, followed by detailed study of animal classification, taxonomy, and evolutionary relationships.
Modules on animal physiology cover anatomy, digestive, circulatory, respiratory, and reproductive systems, while animal behaviour lessons focus on ethology, social interactions, communication, and evolutionary adaptations.
The course also examines ecology and conservation, addressing ecosystem dynamics, biodiversity, threats to wildlife, and conservation strategies. Evolutionary biology modules explore natural selection, mechanisms of evolution, and speciation processes.
Practical skills are developed through lessons on scientific research methods, fieldwork, data collection, and laboratory techniques. Ethical considerations in animal research and handling are also emphasised.
Specialised topics such as marine biology, ornithology, or entomology provide opportunities to explore specific areas of interest. The course culminates in an independent research project, allowing you to apply your knowledge in a real-world zoological study.
