Department of Wildlife Management
At Adventure World, which serves as the campus field for practical training, research is conducted on the breeding and reproduction of numerous wild animals, including rare animals. The Academy aims to provide students with real knowledge, experience, and skills through more than 300 hours of practical training per year (in the first year of the Wildlife Management course).
Experienced staff members in charge of various animals at Adventure World provide direct guidance on techniques and knowledge gained from their real-life experience so that students can acquire the skills to be immediately effective in the field of working with wild animals.
