<p>My brother is a junior in high school looking for some schools with good Zoology departments. Any ideas of which schools have good Zoology departments?</p>
<p>I have a cousin who is a professor in the zoology dept. at Michigan State, and she seems to think it is quite good.</p>
<p>At several colleges Zoology has been dropped as a science department title and has been consequently folded into "Biological Sciences" or related department. However, among the schools that retain distinct Zoology Departments [and the major], here are very good programs'</p>
<p>U of Georgia
North Carolina State University
Colorado State University</p>
<p>Michigan State University has one of the best Biology programs anywhere. MSU's Lyman Briggs School is a community learning/living environment dedicated to that field. You'll find that most schools with good reputations similarly have fine Biology/Zoology/Ecology-Evolution departments, though academics would agree that MSU is exemplary.</p>
<p>Cornell still offers "zoology" and I'm sure they're great at it.</p>
<p>Google on "Department of Zoology" and a whole bunch of them will fall out.</p>
<p>KINGLIN - any idea what your brother wants to do with zoology??</p>
<p>My husband has a degree in zoology from Miami University. They still have the program.</p>
<p>Clendenenator, Cornell's zoology program is only at the graduate level. </p>
<p>Auburn University
Colorado State University
Miami University
Michigan State University
North Carolina State University
Ohio State University
Oregon State University
University of British Columbia
University of California-Davis
University of Colorado-Boulder (EEB)
University of Connecticut (EEB)
University of Florida
University of Hawaii-Manoa
University of Maine
University of New Hampshire
University of Toronto (EEB)
University of Wisconsin-Madison
Washington State University</p>
<p>I'm wondering what one can do with a zoology degree? Sounds interesting to major in but I'm not sure if that would be a practical major.</p>
<p>Wisconsin and he would be instate for tuition. Great deal for a top Zoology dept.</p>
<p>I'm a zoology (and German) major from Miami (Ohio), and a lot of zoo majors are pre-med. We don't have a general biology major, so students pick from microbiology, zoology, or botany. I like Miami's department-- it's challenging, and the professors actually care about students. Many students are involved in research, and the facilities are really nice.</p>
<p>My husband used his zoology degree to go to dental school and he says most kids in zoology were pre-med. Some went into other health-related fields like physical therapy and some were pre-vet. A few got very coveted jobs at zoos, which didn't pay well but the zoology professors were very impressed when someone got a job at a zoo. I didn't realize that working at a zoo was so competitive, but he says there was always much celebration in the department when someone got a zoo job.</p>
