... University of Leeds

Course Overview

We take both your personal and your career development very seriously. We have a proactive Industrial Advisory Board who advise us on what they look for in graduates and on employability-related skills within our courses.

Our graduates have gone on to a very varied range of biodiversity and conservation jobs and careers around the world. We know that the subject knowledge and training we provide is excellent, but we’re also trying to produce well-rounded graduates who have the skills, experience and confidence to succeed in a challenging job market.

The balance we create between theoretical and practical components in conservation offer you the opportunity to develop specialist and transferable skills on our degrees that go beyond a Masters and open up diverse opportunities when you graduate. As with many of our MSc graduates, you could go on to study for a PhD and enter a research career. You could also go on to a career in an applied ecology or conservation-related area. Potential employers look for academic qualifications in combination with practical skills and experience, and a relevant Masters course can give you the edge in a highly competitive field.

Our dedicated employability and professional development officer will ensure that you are aware of events and opportunities to increase your employability.
