If you have received an offer to study with us this September, you can find out more about our academic and postgraduate student community here.
We are a community tied together by our need to understand the planet, and the species and cultures that reside within it.
We are delighted to welcome you to our community, which uniquely combines conservation, ethnobotany and forensic osteology. These subjects contain important links, from conservation’s exploration of the impacts our changing environment has on all species; ethnobotany's intersection of human-environment interaction and sociocultural knowledge of plants; and forensic osteology's excavation and analysis of human remains.
Discover more about your course through the resources below.
Our laboratories include modern genetics labs, dedicated equipment for microscopic imaging, a video editing suite, computer studios and the Imaging Centre for Life Sciences.
