Wildlife Ecology and Conservation at University Centre Sparsholt

Ecology matters more than ever and is not just about understanding nature, it’s about securing a future for the natural world and humanity. As climate change accelerates and biodiversity loss reaches critical levels, ecological expertise is vital for restoring ecosystems, ensuring food security, and building resilient societies. We have run courses like our specialist Wildlife Ecology and Conservation degree for over 50 years, with an enviable reputation for our work. The department has close working links with many of the major wildlife and conservation organisations and is recognised as a leading land‑based institution in this field.
