| Description: | Ecology and Conservation is for you if you're curious and care about the natural world. On your course, you'll learn about the past, present and future of life on Earth. You'll work towards finding solutions to some of the most important ecological problems facing humanity — from managing environmental change to conserving rare animals and plants. You'll learn from ecologists who are influencing global debates on topics including evolutionary biology, species conservation and environmental sustainability. Outside the classroom, you have the opportunity to explore the South Downs National Park on local field trips and go on trips to Wales, Devon, Yorkshire, Portugal, Southern Africa, the Red Sea and Ecuador. During your integrated Masters year, you'll develop advanced research skills by working with an Ecology research group. This experience will prepare you for a future in scientific research, and also for a variety of careers in the environmental sector and beyond. |
