What are the likely ecological effects of global warming? How does co-operative behaviour in animals evolve?
BSc Ecology offers a detailed knowledge and understanding of how species and communities interact, how they evolve and function, and how ecosystems work. You will also see how this knowledge can be applied to reconcile development pressures and conservation and you will acquire the practical and transferable skills required by employers. In your first year, the ecology field course will explore a range of up-to-date ecological techniques in different habitats. The skills and techniques learned here are also developed in the practicals. You will study the ecology of populations and communities, evolution and conservation. Optionally, there is a subsidised tropical field.
