Program Overview

Effective conservation is a global challenge, and must be implemented with global perspectives. This Master’s from Lincoln University prepares you for an international career in conservation with a unique opportunity to study at two internationally recognised universities, with differing but complementary approaches.

Conservation is an international effort, applied in focused contexts. An essential part is the ability to review, adapt then re-apply innovations that work in one part of the world to another. Studying at both Lincoln and the University of Göttingen in Germany will expand your understanding by nurturing your appreciation of conservation and conservation approaches, their different issues and dynamics across two different contrasting hemispheres.

Course Content
You’ll complete two semesters of coursework split between Lincoln and Göttingen, with all courses taught in English.

There are 12 weeks of practical work experience, plus a research project / thesis (120 credits).

Practical work options can include an internship within New Zealand or overseas with an internationally-based conservation organisation.
