Study Level

Masters

Whether you study full or part-time, you’ll cover a total of 6 core units – including your work placement or field course and your dissertation project. The core units explore areas such as Zoo Conservation, Statistics and Research Design and Organismal Genetics. If you accept an offer of a place, you will be automatically enrolled for the core units. At the course induction, we can advise you on the best choice of option units to support your particular interests and balance your workload across the year (or two if you are part-time). The specialist option areas include Behavioural Biology, Species Recovery, Topics in Conservation and Sustainability, Earth Observation and GIS and Avian Biology and Conservation. You’ll either do a three-month work placement at a zoo or aquarium in the UK or a field course in Poland, East Africa or Ecuador. Your final masters-level project could also involve research overseas. If you apply for a work placement and are successful, you may be able to carry out your research project at the same institution, almost doubling your time there.
