Course Overview

You can choose modules relating to the research opportunities and challenges around the Human Primate Interface. This includes a tailored module allowing you to focus on your chosen topic within conservation and ecology.

Coursework is innovative and varied. It will provide you with direct training to work in conservation or ecology as a practitioner, advocate or academic.

You will have the opportunity to produce an original piece of research on topics such as:

  • Illegal trade
  • Bushmeat
  • Crop raiding
  • Ethnoprimatology.

You'll work with international scholars in primatology, biological anthropology, and primate conservation. And gain the experience to research the human primate interface, and where relevant, to enact positive change.

Entry Requirement 

Academic Requirement:

You will normally be required to have, or be expecting, a good honours degree in anthropology, biology, ecology, psychology, or an acceptable related discipline.

If you are not a graduate, or if you have graduated in an unrelated discipline, you will be considered for entry to the course if you can demonstrate in your application, and at an interview, that you are able to work at an advanced level in the discipline.

We will consider appropriate credits obtained elsewhere. Accreditation of prior learning (eg a conversion course or an advanced research training course) will be considered on a case-by-case basis by the course manager. Accreditation of prior experiential learning (APEL) will similarly be considered.

Transfer between part-time and full-time modes, transfer from the diploma to the MSc, or deferral of study may be possible in certain circumstances at the discretion of the examination committee.
