As a future conservation leader, you need solution-oriented, interdisciplinary expertise to tackle complex conservation decisions in a changing world. The UW–Madison Master of Science in Environmental Conservation is not a traditional master’s degree: Our program is about networking and real-world experience as much as it is about acquiring knowledge. Work directly with our alumni and colleagues in conservation organizations and agencies that respond to local, regional, and global environmental challenges. Apply principles and tools from conservation planning, environmental policy, and sustainable development. You will use financial management, institutional governance, GIS, and environmental monitoring tools while you synthesize interdisciplinary topics like conservation science, social systems, and policy management. We attract applicants from around the world and from a variety of backgrounds. Our program is designed to provide opportunities that develop your expertise and expand your contacts in the conservation sector. We strive to prepare our students for leadership positions in nongovernmental organizations, federal and state agencies, and related businesses.
