Trefnydd: Dr Paul Cross

This module gives students the opportunity to see how the principles of conservation that are discussed in earlier parts of their course are put into practice. During visits to areas which are managed for a range of objectives, students meet conservation managers working on behalf of different stakeholders and engage in discussion with them.

The MSc Conservation and Land Management comprises visits to nature reserves and farms run by Welsh Government organisations, trusts, local authorities, community groups and private individuals.
