The Department of Zoology at the University of Oxford has an ongoing tradition of encouraging world class research. The Department’s research covers a complete range of Zoology: behaviour, development, ecology, epidemiology, entomology, evolution, field ornithology, and theoretical biology (or in allied subjects).
The Department is based in South Parks Road in Oxford. It also has facilities at the John Krebs Field Station at Wytham and much of the Department’s field work is conducted at Wytham Woods.
The Department comprises approximately 50 members of academic staff and research fellows (eleven of whom are Fellows of the Royal Society), 80 research assistants and 160 graduate students. While the Department remains one of Zoology, it has close teaching and research ties with Plant Sciences, Biochemistry, Genetics, Biological Anthropology, and the University Museum.
The Department expects to have between 10 – 15 studentships a year.
