Course Overview

Offered by Bangor University, the BSc (Hons) Zoology with Primatology provides a comprehensive undergraduate education in biological sciences. Based in Bangor, Wales, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 3-year full-time structure. The primates (apes, monkeys, tarsiers, lemurs and lorises) are facing an extinction crisis as many of them are specialised in their biology and ecology and live in parts of the world that are especially vulnerable to habitat loss and degradation. They are also the group of animals, to which we belong, so they provide a window through which we can interpret human evolutionary origins. This degree will give you a broad zoological training to appreciate the advanced and specialised knowledge of primates in the fullest evolutionary context. Home/uk fees are £9,535 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 92% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £19,000 within three years, a 95% continuation rate, and 77% of graduates in employment or further study.
