The MRes Wildlife Conservation research master’s degree is an exciting addition to our portfolio of programmes, designed for graduates of biology, zoology, ecology and other relevant biological or ecological disciplines. The aim of this MRes is to produce individuals with the skills, experience and academic credentials required for a career in Conservation biology. Summative assessment contributes to your marks and involves a combination of unseen written examinations (at the end of the study module) and coursework (which includes essays, project reports, etc.). Assessment of your knowledge and understanding is undertaken primarily via these summative assessment methods; in addition you will receive feedback on all formally assessed work. This MRes allows those with career aspirations within conservation to enhance their prospects in a number of ways. You will develop your academic credentials and your practical skills, jointly, without having to choose to invest in one route or the other. You will be exposed to, and have the opportunity to work alongside, practicing conservation biologists, providing you with valuable experience and insight into the realities of working in conservation. There is currently no provision for this MRes as a part time course.
