Department of Zoology 

Introduction of the Department of Zoology

Zoology, the scientific study of animals, is a dynamic and vital discipline that seeks to answer fundamental questions about life on Earth. The Department of Zoology is committed to exploring the vast diversity of animal life, ranging from microscopic single-celled organisms and invertebrates to highly complex vertebrates. Our focus extends from understanding molecular and physiological processes to examining the roles of animals within global ecosystems.

Beyond merely documenting species, the department emphasizes uncovering the underlying mechanisms of life, the complexity of evolutionary processes, and the urgent need for biodiversity conservation in a rapidly changing world. Through teaching, research, and outreach, we strive to contribute meaningfully to scientific knowledge and environmental sustainability.
