Overview

This page covers Conservation Biology across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a one year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Biology splits the week between lectures and laboratory work, and the final stage is built around a supervised research project.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
