Summary
Overview
This comprehensive MSc programme equips you with a broad and versatile skillset essential for the study of animal behaviour. You’ll gain both conceptual knowledge and hands-on experience.
Our dynamic course underscores the importance of understanding how animals adapt and respond to their environments, a crucial consideration in the Anthropocene era. This knowledge is increasingly relevant in fields such as cognitive psychology, One Health, biomedicine, human-animal interactions, welfare, ethics, and conservation.
You’ll delve into the critical methods for quantifying animal behaviour across different species, employing both traditional techniques and cutting-edge remote sensing technologies. Additionally, you’ll learn to address contemporary challenges in animal behaviour and cognition, developing transferable skills for compiling, handling, and analysing large datasets.
Our MSc in Animal Behaviour leverages the exceptional research strengths of UEA and the Norwich Research Park, offering you access to dynamic field sites, state-of-the-art molecular and evolutionary laboratories, and extensive datasets. You’ll join a vibrant cohort and become an integral part of our active and dynamic research community.
This MSc course features a range of topics, and places animal behaviour in the context of other areas of life sciences. Graduating from this course, you’ll be ready to either pursue a PhD or a career in areas such as Environmental organisations, Animal welfare and management, governmental policy making or non-governmental institutes.
