Overview

Course Outline: Wildlife is an enamoring field for most of us. In my professional tenure, I’ve observed numerous people flocking to get a glimpse of the tiger, to get an opportunity of diving with the fishes, or to get access to a National Park or a Wildlife Sanctuary. And these experiences gets even more endearing when you get to know how the show is getting managed, how and why we regulate access, and also how we maintain grasslands and water bodies to keep the systems up and running. This course will cover one such aspect of wildlife management by providing an overview of the field of Ecology.

  • ANAM ZAHRA
    I recently completed a short course on wildlife ecology and found it highly rewarding. The course offered a balanced mix of lectures and fieldwork, covering key topics like ecosystem dynamics and conservation strategies. The instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, making complex concepts easy to understand. Hands-on field trips allowed us to apply our learning in real-world settings. Overall, it provided a solid foundation in wildlife ecology and was a valuable experience for anyone interested in the field.
