You explore cutting-edge concepts, approaches, and applications in ecology and conservation, learning from our faculty's research experience. You'll develop a comprehensive understanding of the social, environmental, and climate-related challenges that shape these disciplines. Expand your expertise in contemporary nature-based climate solutions, advanced molecular methods for tracking species populations, and crucial chemical analysis for environmental monitoring.
Our research-driven faculty, along with industry conservation partners, delivers current, practical instruction that reflects real-world scenarios.
The program includes field excursions and hands-on assessments where you'll gather, process, and evaluate actual data to solve pressing ecological problems. Through collaboration with the Industry Nature Conservation Association, you'll participate in harbor seal (Phoca vitulina) preservation efforts in the Tees estuary - demonstrating how our research partnerships enhance student learning.
Optional research projects allow you to contribute to active research initiatives, providing authentic research experience and opportunities to create meaningful work.
