MSc Biodiversity Conservation

Nottingham Trent University

In the face of the global biodiversity and climate crisis, conserving species and habitats is more critical than ever. The accelerated loss of the planet’s biodiversity threatens not only the intrinsic value nature has to offer, but also the ecosystems that underpin human health and wellbeing- from food security and clean water to disease regulation and climate stability. The importance of protecting biodiversity cannot be understated. On this biodiversity conservation degree, you’ll develop the skills and knowledge to do just that. You’ll delve into the dramatic impact of human activities and learn how mitigation, surveying, consultancy and legislation can make powerful differences to your local environment. Conservation is a hands-on field, and this course is designed to reflect that: your learning will be conducted on the extensive grounds of our Brackenhurst Campus, which is home to a wide range of species and habitats. If you love wildlife, thrive outdoors, and want to help tackle one of the most pressing concerns of our generation, this biodiversity conservation Masters could be for you.
