Course content

Our course is the first course in Scotland to be accredited by the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management.

The greatest challenge facing conservation biologists today is the preservation of the world’s biodiversity in the face of considerable human demands on space and resources.

By combining the disciplines of wildlife biology and conservation biology, experienced staff will help you develop and apply both the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required to address this challenge.

This is the first and only degree in Scotland to be accredited by the Chartered Institute of Ecology and Environmental Management (CIEEM).

Our graduates have gone on to work for environmental consultancies, government agencies and independent wildlife organisations nationally and internationally.
