Conservation Management from Edge Hill University puts a high emphasis on practical experience in managing habitats and species and in developing biological identification skills for plants, invertebrates and vertebrates. You will undertake over 25 days of fieldwork, including a residential course, and carry out a 20-day work placement in a conservation organisation or ecological consultancy.
