Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Wildlife Ecology and Conservation Science (Foundation Year) (45FF)

BSc(Hons) Wildlife Ecology and Conservation Science explores wildlife conservation issues at local, national and global levels. Created in partnership with Bristol Zoo Gardens, it gives students unique access to the zoo's expertise.

Mixing theory with practice, students will delve into the relationship between wildlife and society, and consider the impact of human activities on the living world. Students deepen their knowledge of conservation by carrying out work in natural habitats close to Bristol, including the Severn Estuary, the Cotswolds woodlands and grasslands, the Somerset Levels and Avon Gorge.

Tap into UWE's many links with local conservation organizations, and go on placements, volunteering and where possible, field-based work and residential trips in the UK and overseas.

Students will be well prepared to go into a wide range of jobs. They could work in national and international wildlife conservation, conservation consultancy, media and wildlife film-making, wildlife and enterprise, or wildlife conservation research.
