A flexibly structured degree path means you have the opportunity to study abroad for a year or work in industry for a year, either locally, nationally or overseas. You will be taught through a combination of lectures, tutorials, seminars, and discussion groups, supported by practical classes and field courses. Field courses available near and far allow you to work varied habitats. You can explore from the spectacular marine coastal ecosystems of the Gower Peninsula on our doorstep, to distant lands such as India, Borneo and Puerto Rico.
