This programme is ideal if you want a longer degree with substantial workplace experience built in.

You’ll return to complete advanced conservation study and graduate with an honours project that demonstrates your capability and direction.
It’s a strong route if you want to build employability through real experience while preparing for conservation and environmental careers.
