About Wildlife Conservation, MRes - at University of Southampton

Explore Wildlife Conservation at a global top 100* university.

With climate change challenging our conservation efforts, now is the time to play a role in the future of conservation by studying our MRes Wildlife Conservation course. We're the only university in the UK offering a Masters of Research in close collaboration with a conservation organisation.

This collaborative programme is jointly delivered by the University of Southampton and Marwell Wildlife, an action-oriented conservation organisation dedicated to the conservation of biodiversity and other natural resources. You'll develop the knowledge and skills needed to become a conservation biologist, helping you to protect the future of our wildlife.

You will be taught by active conservation biologists and undertake an eight-month research project, feeding into the wider ongoing research at Marwell that is having real-life conservation implications. Unlike other institutions, you will have the opportunity to highlight three projects you are interested in and will be assigned to a project based on your preferences before starting the programme. Project topics include:

  • Species Integrity
  • Ecosystem Function
  • People and Nature

You will also have the opportunity to undertake a field course to Kenya, as part of the taught component of the programme.
