Deepen your understanding of key concepts in ecology, evolution and conservation on this interdisciplinary Master's course. You'll receive broad research training that examines fundamental concepts and theory, and their application to evolutionary ecology, conservation and biodiversity science. Based at Silwood Park – a centre of excellence for ecological research – you'll explore a range of interdisciplinary topics guided by leading researchers in their field. You'll benefit from their own research insights and model systems to understand the fundamental scientific principles that underpin the study topics. External conservation specialists will also highlight the key issues involved with applying science to practical conservation. At the beginning of the course you will have the option to choose between focussing on developing your computational or improve your field skills in Silwood and in other areas of the UK. A research project forms the major component of this course. Over five months, you'll apply research techniques from the course to a topic of your choice. MSc Living Planet programme Our MSc Living Planet course will equip you to tackle the great environmental challenges facing the world, providing training on the transferrable research skills you’ll need to develop science-based understanding and interventions.
