The Ecology degree at Aberystwyth University aims to provide you with the academic knowledge and practical skills to meet this demand. On the Ecology degree, you will study the interactions between organisms and their environment, building the essential foundation on which to develop your understanding of how wildlife will respond to current and future environmental threats, including pollution, climate change, invasive species and habitat destruction. Our aim is to train you to be part of the next generation of ecologists who will respond to environmental threats, identify solutions and help conserve biodiversity into the future. The majority of teaching staff in the Department of Life Sciences are qualified to PhD level and are research active. Vocational courses also have staff whose background lies within industry. The Department has a large number of research only staff with whom students may have contact.
