Course overview

This course is for students who wish to be trained in cutting-edge quantitative techniques in ecology and evolution with applications to wide range of real-world problems, including ecosystem-based solutions for industrial bioprocessing and production, improving food production in agroecosystems, nature-based carbon capture, and biodiversity conservation.

Gain cutting-edge quantitative techniques in ecology and evolution with applications to wide range of real-world problems.

Quantitative skills are a critical limiting factor in modern biology, including the fields of ecology, evolution, behaviour and conservation.

Learn those skills in application to important biological problems at one of the world's leading institutions for quantitative biology.

Along with coursework on cutting edge topics in quantitative ecology and evolution, youll will carry out an extended piece of independent research across over an 8-month project, where you will apply your growing range of skills and advance your project management skills.
