Get Set: Finding a School


Questions to ask while looking at colleges:

  • Does the college have the program I need to prepare for my zoological career?
  • Is there a zoological park, animal shelter, veterinarian clinic, or pet store I can volunteer or work at while I attend school?
  • Am I willing to move to take advantage of the educational and career opportunities this school offers ?
  • How many people that graduate from the program find jobs in animal-related careers?
  • Are there internships available for working with animals?
  • Who is teaching the courses, graduate students or professors? How much time do profes sors have to work with me?
  • What experience do the professors have working with animals?
  • With the degree program I choose, what are some other career options if I can't find a job working with animals, or decide that I'm no longer interested in working with animals?
