Primate Conservation - Lemurs and Nocturnal Primates

Our MSc Primate Conservation - Lemurs and Nocturnal Primates course is ideal for students with a particular interest in prosimian primates and night monkeys. It is a pioneering programme providing scientific and professional training and accreditation to conservation scientists.

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

Coursework is innovative and varied. It will provide you with direct training to work in conservation or ecology as a practitioner, advocate or academic.  If you are working with night monkeys, lemurs, lorises and tarsiers you can gain a focus on this evolutionarily important and highly threatened group of primates, by completing an original piece of research. 

You will benefit from our links with organisations and NGOs relating to apes, which include:

  • Fauna and Flora International
  • TRAFFIC
  • Conservation International.
