This course focuses on ecological concepts, the natural world, and how we conserve it. It has been designed to develop your knowledge and understanding of environmental problems and their solutions. You’ll study how ecological concepts can be applied to conserve nature, and the threats from pressures such as climate and land-use change. You will look at the ecology of plants, animals and land use, the conservation of organisms and the management of habitats - including learning how to manage them through practical experience. You will examine environmental impact assessment and global food security issues. The course also explores methods of ecological investigation using geographical information system (GIS) skills.
