Join the longest-running undergraduate BSc (Hons) Ecology and Conservation course in the UK. Our degree equips future ecology and conservation professionals. Natural science focus areas include ecology, wildlife survey methods, rewilding, wildlife management, conservation biology, biogeography, and conservation genetics. There is an emphasis on field trips and some lab-based training, too.

BSc (Hons) Wildlife Conservation focuses on core conservation issues, the physical environment and the landscape. You’ll gain hands-on learning experience in our advanced Bodmer laboratories and develop transferable skills in interpreting biological field data. As your studies progress, you will gain a theoretical and practical understanding of wildlife, wildlife ecology and environmental problems that threaten species. There is also an option to complete a one-year paid industry placement.

This concentration is intended for students that want to pursue a career that focuses on Ecology, Environmental Sciences, and Evolutionary Biology fields. The overall educational objective of the biological sciences undergraduate program is to provide students with a conceptual foundation in biology and a skills base necessary to build successful careers in industry or business or to succeed in graduate school or professional school.

The degree offers further specialisation in engineering geology and hydrogeology. Engineering geology is the study of the behaviour of ground (soil and rock) and how likely it is to affect engineering works. It comprises geotechnical studies and relates to construction (eg founding or excavation) on and with geological materials (eg construction materials), and to the influences of geological, geomorphological and hydrological processes on construction and development. Hydrogeology refers to the occurrence, distribution and movement of water below the Earth’s surface. The study of groundwater is generally both quantitative (eg water supply, safe abstraction and the influences of pumping) and qualitative (eg contamination, remediation and drinking water).

The Bachelor of Science (BSc) is a three-year undergraduate degree which enables each student to develop his or her own interests in a science subject (science major) and related subjects. Students have the flexibility to combine their major subject with other science subjects, as well as subjects from other disciplines across the University.

If you're passionate about the environment and eager to tackle global challenges like air pollution, climate change, and conservation, this field is for you. Environmental science combines science, math, and problem-solving to address pressing issues. It's a career that not only allows you to make a positive impact on the planet but also offers opportunities to travel and explore the outdoors while working on solutions for a sustainable future.

Interdisciplinary program for future leaders in food and other agro-industries. This program aims to produce graduates who have scientific knowledge in agro- industrial processing and innovation development, entrepreneurial skills, and a good level of cultural intelligence.

Water is one of the most important substances on Earth. It is essential to many of the things we need and enjoy in life: food, transport, and recreation, but managing it can also pose some serious challenges. Around the world, water managers contend with droughts, floods, sea-level rise, overfishing, pollution, plastic soup, and many other risks to both our natural environment and our society. We need water managers to safeguard our future!

Our BSc Ecology and Environmental Biology course explores the diversity of the living world, across levels of biological organisation, from genes to individuals, their populations, and the communities they form, up to entire ecosystems.

What changes are needed to conserve species, habitats, landscapes and ecosystems? Explore the science behind society’s ecological and conservation challenges and graduate with subject-specific research, field and laboratory skills to make a difference in this important field. Our Ecology and Conservation BSc will provide you with an understanding of ecology, conservation biology, conservation practice and environmental management to address the ecological and conservation issues facing our planet.

Are you looking to further enhance your career prospects in the wildlife, ecology and conservation sector? This Program enables you to progress from the FdSc, or another relevant Level 5 qualification, to a full BSc Honours Degree in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation Management.

Acquire knowledge in the many facets of ecology and conservation biology. Students receive a strong grounding in all aspects of biology before specializing in terrestrial or marine ecology.

There is an increasing need for modern conservation management for trained graduate ecologists with academic knowledge grounded in field experience and competent species identification skills. The BSc (Hons) in Ecology and Conservation Management degree programme employs a scientific approach to natural resource management, conservation and sustainability and has an overall theme of applied ecological science...

The mission of the Bachelor of Science: Ecology program is to provide students an innovative and applied undergraduate education in ecology, the study of relationships between organisms and their environments. We educate our students in the scientific and quantitative skills needed to work at scales from genes to the biosphere and from minutes to millennia. Our program strongly supports student engagement in ecological research and community outreach through internships, cooperative education, and thesis opportunities. The BS: Ecology degree is appropriate for students interested in careers as diverse as fish and wildlife biology, statistical ecology, agroecology, botany, forestry, conservation biology, disease ecology, and landscape ecology. Ecologists are most frequently hired by universities, research institutions, private consulting firms and industry, state and federal government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and zoos and aquariums. In addition, the curriculum is tailored to provide all the coursework necessary for students to apply for professional certification from several ecological organizations (Ecological Society of America, The Wildlife Society, and The American Fisheries Society) and to attend top M.S. or Ph.D. graduate programs in ecology-related fields.

The purpose of the programme is to provide students with a firm grounding in the environmental sciences from which they can start to specialise in integrative environmental science with ecology, or geography with GIS or water management.
