The Zoology concentration at Texas A&M University–San Antonio provides students with a comprehensive understanding of animal life—from invertebrates to vertebrates—through a curriculum that integrates anatomy, physiology, behavior, and evolutionary biology. Required courses in Invertebrate Zoology, combined with a wide range of upper-division electives spanning Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy, Animal Physiology, Parasitology, Herpetology, Mammalogy, Ornithology, and more, allow students to build deep expertise in the diversity, structure, and function of the animal kingdom. Laboratory and field components emphasize hands-on specimen work, dissection, and organismal observation, producing graduates with strong practical skills for careers in animal science, wildlife management, and veterinary preparation.
