Plant and Fungal Taxonomy Diversity and Conservation

Course Overview

The MSc Plant and Fungal Taxonomy Diversity and Conservation at Queen Mary University of London is a postgraduate programme designed for postgraduate students passionate about understanding living systems. Based in Tower Hamlets, England, this Russell Group university offers a research-led approach to learning, with a 1-year full-time structure. With only a small percentage of the planet's diversity formally described by science, it is more important than ever to train a new generation of taxonomists who will go on to describe, understand and conserve biodiversity. Of critical shortage are skilled scientists in plant and fungal taxonomy, scientists that underpin much bioscience, nature conservation, plant breeding work, as well as underpinning the development of environmental policy. This course delivers vital training to fill that skill shortage. A minimum ielts score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with a median graduate salary of £26,000 within three years, and 75% of graduates in employment or further study.
