Course summary

The demand for change has never been greater. Join a programme designed to equip you with the skills needed to tackle today's urgent conservation challenges. Stand out to future employers by mastering not only ecological principles but also the socio-political dynamics shaping global conservation efforts, and gain hands-on experience with a two-week international field trip to Kruger National Park, South Africa.

On this course, youll learn cutting-edge conservation theory, data analysis, biodiversity monitoring, and the socio-political frameworks crucial to tackling global issues like poaching, human-wildlife conflict, and conservation economics.

About this course

In this programme, you'll not only develop essential wildlife conservation skills like designing biodiversity monitoring schemes, study design, and understanding environmental threats, but also address the critical socio-political aspects of conservation that employers are urgently seeking.

Youll gain a deeper understanding of how wildlife conservation operates within human communities, the challenges this creates, and the impact of these social dynamics. Additionally, you'll explore the national and international legal and policy frameworks that shape and regulate conservation efforts globally.

You'll gain deep insight into many areas, with modules on global conservation, biodiversity and assessment, ecological monitoring and more. You'll also increase both your quantitative and qualitative research skills using industry standard software and techniques to prepare you for the life of work, and get hands on experience with field trips to South Africa.

Using these enhanced knowledge and research skills, you'll undertake the wildlife conservation project. With assistance you will conduct an individual research project or dissertation on a subject of your choosing, with the option to participate in existing real-life research projects or industry placements. This may include developing a detailed conservation plan for a particular species or habitat, a report on public opinion of a controversial conservation topic, developing a population viability model, or many other ideas. This project will tailor your degree to your passion, sending you into your career prepared to take on anything.
