Master of Science in Wildlife Biology and Conservation (STEM)

Program Overview

Wildlife Biology and Conservation

Imagine a classroom where the walls are snow-covered mountains, and the ceiling is a bright blue sky. Imagine that your course materials are the majestic animals that roam the forests and coastline. When you earn a master’s degree in wildlife biology and conservation at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, you won’t have to imagine these things, because the vast Alaskan wilderness will be your classroom.

You may be wondering, “What is wildlife biology?” At UAF, wildlife biology is the study of animals and animal behavior within their natural habitats. As a wildlife biologist, you can work as a researcher and conservationist in varied settings, including environmental research organizations, wildlife reserves, zoos and universities. In addition to protecting animal species and their habitats, you’ll also work to ensure the safety of humans through studying diseases, environmental hazards and the ways in which humans can safely interact with nature and wild animals.

Our 30 credit-hour graduate wildlife biology and conservation degree includes topics such as the interactions among populations and species, physiological ecology, principles of monitoring and managing animals and their habitats, and the human dimensions of wildlife.
