The course itself was fantastic but such a shame the staff couldn’t care less about its students wellbeing. Personal tutor? What personal tutor? The refusal to bend even slightly to make some minor adjustments so life is slightly easier for those struggling let’s them down dramatically. read more

I'm enjoying it. Should have more contact hours with the animals. Regular contact hours in first year but no practical at all in second year. Potentially more optional modules. Only 2 options and in final year. The lecturers are good 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

Great course, it includes a good range of subjects that are not only focused on zoos. It opens the door to many career paths, not necessarily zoos, so it is useful/interesting also for people that do not necessarily want to work in zoos. read more

We learn so much, and I have really enjoyed the modules for first year. The lecturers are really great and they really do care for your wellbeing. The lectures and work can be tough in first year, which I found, but it will feel worth it in the end. You don't realise how much you have learned and developed during the year. They also allow you to go on a Jersey trip which will allow you to see behind the scenes of the zoo and talk to specialised guest lectures. 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
