We are one of the few Animal Behavior programs in the country to offer a Bachelor of Science degree. You’ll study animal behavior from different perspectives, and learn to apply your academic knowledge in a research setting. If you have a fascination with behavior and its relation to evolution, ecology, and physiology; an interest in interdisciplinary studies; or a passion for conservation and environmental issues, then a degree in Animal Behavior might be a good choice for you.
