My course at ntu has been nothing but he most welcoming and enjoyable , all the staff are amazing and get so involved with their students . The facilities at NTU are nothing like I’ve seen at any other place aswell as providing more opportunities than you could imagine .

Course is great, first year you have six different subjects that give you a foundation of knowledge for second year. Then second year, you have two terms each with three topics and it’s more focused and more intricate. Lecture very helpful and good facilities on the NTU NOW page which is a great website to help you catch up on knowledge or refresh lecture material. read more

The modules on this course and the way they set it out are great. In first year you are very hands on with lectures down at the animal unit and working with a range of animals from ferrets to goats and donkeys. They have aquatic animals, domestics and more. You also have pathogen biology where you learn and improve skills in the lab. Assignments are really interesting to do, pushing you further and even more learning on the way. read more

I think that personal tutor hours could be better, they feel a bit rushed sometimes. The course content I feel could be refined a bit more as we always go over in lectures. Towards the end of the year we ran out of content and it was a waste to attend lectures read more

Limited contact hours and often lectures are cancelled despite only being in two days a week. No trips are offered with this course despite very similar ones having so, also no opportunity to choose modules which is quite disappointing. lecturers are all lovely, just wish the course was more intense. read more

Zoo Biology is a great course. I have been loving every second of it. The modules are great and the lecturers are taking advice from the students in how to improve. My personal tutor has only scheduled one 1 to 1 which is fine but was expecting more. Also was expecting are personal tutor to be our course leader but it isn't. read more

Lots of mix ups and confusion. Not helped by issues with staffing and unavoidable problems. Some staff have been amazing and have been working overtime to help and ensure we are supported. Others don’t seem to care as much. The course would be better if it had more trips or practicals etc (I missed out because of covid as they weren’t running). read more

•we have had a big issue with the lectures just being boring presentations that the staff read from. this isn’t stimulating and sends you to sleep. •the teachers are nice. a select couple, even funny. but for the most part, completely unapproachable and can be very sarcastic and patronising. •the content covers a lot in great detail. however, relating this to exam and assignment content is almost impossible. •personal tutors for the part are nice and easy to talk too. however, approaching them can be hard and they can often not check on you or go behind your back and arrange stuff for you that you need consent for. •job prospects are slim... it’s animal related. let’s be real. read more
