Overview

The Conservation Biology programme from Liverpool Hope University develops knowledge of key areas such as the principles and practices of ecology, habitat management, nature conservation and the functioning of natural systems, particularly with regard to different points of view including scientific, ethical and philosophical perspectives. Opportunities are provided to apply knowledge and understanding of conservation biology during field courses within the UK and abroad giving first-hand experience of a range of ecosystems.

A Placement Year option is available for this course. Undertaking a placement year as part of your degree programme offers you the opportunity to gain valuable work experience alongside your studies.

Career opportunities:

Conservation biologists work with government or private agencies serving as consultants on ecological or land use issues, ecologists, wildlife managers, nature conservation managers or work in environmental monitoring.

This course will provide you with the required subject knowledge and scientific tools (practical, numerical and computational skills that are valued by many employers) to pursue such career options.

Some of our graduates go on to train to be teachers, while others go on to further study at Masters and / or Doctorate levels.
