Entry requirements
A minimum of a 2:2 honours degree in a relevant subject area. Normally this should have a wildlife biology, animal behaviour or wildlife conservation focus, however other cognate areas will be considered. Consideration will be given to those who are already experienced practitioners in a field of wildlife conservation and behaviour, but who lack formal qualifications that would be the normal entry requirement. You should also have a good standard of written and spoken English (IELTS 6.5 or equivalent). If you are currently employed, we request a statement of support from your employer.
