Course programme

This is a three year course, which introduces you to key concepts of ecology through seminars and practical work in the first year. Throughout your second and final years you begin to specialise and tailor your degree programme to suit your interests thanks to the increasingly varied module options.

Second Year
During your second year, alongside the core modules, you will have the chance to select optional modules in order to begin tailoring your studies according to your developing interests.

Final Year
Specialisation continues in your final year, with a list of up to fourteen modules from which to shape your curriculum, from Biodiversity to Social Evolution. You will also undertake a substantial independent Ecology research project relating to your academic interests.
