Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Animal Behaviour] From University of Waikato

Completing this minor will provide you with an understanding of how developmental processes can influence animals? behaviour, mechanisms that trigger or control behaviours, what functions certain behaviours might serve for an animal, and how behaviours might have evolved over time.

The combination of fundamental and applied topics studied at Waikato allows you to work toward a better understanding of some of the world?s ecological problems and to better appreciate the unique attributes of our native animals. You will also be able to use both biological and psychological approaches to address issues in the fields of animal conservation, wildlife management, animal welfare and the fundamental study of behaviour.
