Conserving Organisms and their Ecosystems

Protect Biological Diversity

Gain a foundation in the ecological and evolutionary factors impacting the sustainability of species and an understanding of how to manage natural systems and species that are at risk and invasive.

Tackle Contemporary Wildlife Issues

Assess the complex interplay between science, socioeconomic factors and public opinion in the forging of public policy decisions and the value of interdisciplinary approaches to understanding complex problems in wildlife biology.

Gain Hands-on Experience

Take advantage of opportunities for hands-on experience in the field working with plants and animals in a variety of ecosystems, building on core program themes of ecology, evolution and conservation.

Why Wildlife Biology and Conservation?

As a truly unique program, there is currently no other major in Canada that explicitly integrates ecology, evolution, and conservation into a 4-year major, building on the University of Guelph’s long-standing reputation in the areas of biology and natural resources management.

This major empowers you to explore the relationship between ecosystems and organisms, from the molecular level to populations, as well as how we can conserve species through natural system management and interdisciplinary approaches of ecology, evolution and conservation.

Improve Living

Over 24,000 students learn at the University of Guelph every year. More than 800 faculty teach here every year. More than 1,800 research projects to improve life in a variety of capacities are currently underway.

Yet what the numbers don’t capture is how we live while we're here and after we leave. Our students, faculty and staff are engaged. They are passionate about being here. We are equally passionate about educating the whole person to shape better citizens of the world.

That has been our focus for over 150 years: life, living, always improving.

We Acknowledge

The University of Guelph resides on the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit. We recognize that today this gathering place is home to many First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples and acknowledging them reminds us of our collective responsibility to the land where we learn and work.
