Course overview
This course is for students with a passion for biology, who wish to be trained in cutting-edge quantitative techniques in Ecology and Evolution with applications to wide range of real world problems, including Conservation.
Quantitative skills are a critical limiting factor in modern biology, including the fields of Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Conservation Biology
In this course students learn those skills in application to important biological problems at one of the world's leading institutions for quantitative biology
Students leave with skills in computing, statistics, and mathematical modelling that give them a major edge in competing for PhDs and jobs
The course is suitable for students from life, physical, computer as well as mathematical sciences backgrounds
Computational tools are biology's next microscope, only better - learn to use them now!
You’ll carry out an extended piece of independent research across eight months, and apply a range of quantitative methods as you advance your project management skills.
Students need to have a minimum requirement of 2.1 degree in life sciences or physical sciences. A suitable grounding in mathematics is required, for example: A-level Mathematics grade A or B.
