Herp/Zoology Grad. Schools

lvrpl20 Mar 08, 2007 10:12 PM

I am a junior in college now and I will have a degree in History but I have been fascinated with reptiles and animals all my life and everything that I do involves animals of some kind. I am interested in going into Herpetology but I know many Grad. schools do not offer that as a Graduate degree. I was wondering if there was a site I could look at that had the Grad. schools with zoology and maybe the ones with a herpetology concentration of some sort. I am sure this has come up before but I have not been able to locate it on the site. Any help would be great, thanks for your help!

Im interested in going herpetology, Id even already consider myself a herpetologist but without a degree. I dont know about grad schools but if I was you Id start taking classes in animal science, Biology and go from there, that'll send in the rite direction and im sure your professors, and counsolers would be able to help you. When you do find out more information please pass the info on to me Im located in northern California and was considering going from Sac City College to UC Davis.

I don't know a thing about this school's program so I couldn't tell you if they're of any account or not.

I stumbled across the school on the Internet, somehow, while looking for something else. It's located near Charlotte, NC.

Pursue your dreams. Shoot for the stars. Best wishes!

Have a good one!
