Aims
This course aims to build on key zoological concepts taught at level 5 and to introduce new concepts and skills appropriate to level 6. The module is designed to be research and employer led, and will focus on topics linked to the research interests of the teaching team, or of relevance to future employers.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Apply subject specific skills and knowledge to a work-related learning scenario
2.
Communicate effectively, normally in a group environment, to develop problem solving skills.
3.
Critically evaluate recently published scientific literature, and
integrate and evaluate information from different sources
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:
The module will focus on developing graduate skills in areas of zoology related to project management of relevance to future employers. Lectures will be delivered mainly in the format of research seminars. Science communication skills will be developed during group discussions including the use of online platforms. Topics to be covered may include animal behaviour, pharmacology, physiology, genetics and ecology and possibly others to reflect current trends in zoology research and relevant careers.
