Zoology With Placement Year Bsc in University of Sheffield

This course allows you to do a year-long, paid work placement as part of your degree. You'll pay reduced fees for the year you're on placement and you'll have the support you need from our departmental placement tutor and the University.

Most students earn salaries during their placements and many are offered a graduate-level job at the end. Previous students have found placements within industry, charities or government at organisations that include Newquay Zoo, the Centre for Integrated Research, Conservation and Learning (Flamingo Land and the University of York) and EMEC Ecology.

It's a great opportunity to test out a career path that you're considering - whether that's in the lab or applying your scientific knowledge and transferable skills in industry.

The course spans microbes, invertebrates, birds, fish, humans and other mammals: how they evolved, how they behave, and how they respond to global change.

You'll cover three main themes at Sheffield: animal behaviour, conservation and animal ecology - how animals interact with their environment and each other, evolutionary biology - how animals adapt to their environment, and comparative physiology - the functional characteristics of animals.

Our degrees all start with core subject and skills modules that provide the foundation for your studies. As you progress through your degree, you'll have a chance to explore your core subjects in greater depth, choose optional modules across the biosciences to help broaden your knowledge and skills and participate in a research activity. Moving to a different degree course is possible, especially in the first year, and depending on your qualifications.

You'll choose from optional modules that span ecology and conservation biology and plant sciences. You can mix and match these modules, covering physiology, genetics and speciation to behaviour, food-webs, biodiversity and conservation, underpinned by the latest research discoveries from our experts.

If you want to study zoology but don't meet the entry requirements to go straight into the first year, our Biosciences with a Foundation Year could be for you. After successfully completing the one-year programme, you'll progress onto the first year of your chosen degree.
