Celebrating Zoology & Physiology's 112 year legacy!
For over a century, the Department of Zoology and Physiology has been a leader in education, research, and service across Wyoming and beyond. From training future physicians through foundational medical education to advancing wildlife conservation and protecting ecosystem health, our work is deeply woven into the fabric of the state and beyond.
For 112 years, we’ve taken pride in the breadth and depth of our programs. Few departments span such a wide range—from molecules to mountains, from lab bench to field site. At the heart of it all is our commitment to students. Our graduates leave with the skills, confidence, and experience to thrive in careers across science, health, and conservation.
This Giving Day, your support helps us build on that legacy and meet the evolving needs of today’s students. Your gift strengthens three key areas:
- Expanding Research Opportunities – Support groundbreaking research and hands-on learning for students at all levels, from Neuroscience to field ecology.
- Enhancing the Student Experience – Zoology and Physiology students learn by doing. Your support creates meaningful fieldwork, travel opportunities, and spaces that foster community and collaboration.
- Innovating in Teaching – Help us grow experiential learning that prepares students to apply their education in dynamic practical ways.
Whether you're an alum, parent, friend, or partner in science, your gift helps us continue shaping the next generation of scientists, educators, and leaders.
Thank you for supporting the UW Department of Zoology and Physiology legacy! We are truly field-tested, built to last.
