This comprehensive course offers keen enthusiasts a chance to venture into the hidden realms of mysterious creatures, little-understood phenomena, and the relationship between these cryptids and modern scientific understanding.
Cryptozoology is the study of elusive animals, often referred to as 'cryptids', that have yet to be officially recognised or documented by mainstream science. These creatures, whether real or products of folklore, have fascinated humanity for centuries. From tales of Bigfoot in North America to the Yeti of the Himalayas, these mysterious beings have garnered interest, controversy, and intrigue across different cultures and eras.
The Cryptozoology Diploma begins with an introduction to the captivating world of cryptozoology, setting the foundation for what lies ahead. With this groundwork laid, students will journey through explorations of famous cryptids that have taken centre stage in legends and myths. But it's not just about renowned cryptids; the course also provides an expansive look at cryptids from various corners of the globe, shedding light on their historical and cultural significance.
But where does cryptozoology fit within the broader scope of modern science? The course tackles this pertinent question, weighing the evidence and theories that orbit these enigmatic creatures. Eyewitness accounts have always played a crucial role in the field of cryptozoology, and the course critically examines their reliability, challenges, and contributions to the field.
However, not all tales and accounts are genuine.

The media and popular culture have played undeniable roles in shaping perceptions about cryptids.
