Program Summary

Wildlife and Ecotourism Management is an academic discipline that focuses on the conservation of wildlife and natural ecosystems while promoting sustainable tourism. It integrates biological and environmental sciences with tourism management to ensure that natural habitats are preserved while allowing people to experience and appreciate them responsibly.  

 

The course covers topics such as wildlife ecology, biodiversity conservation, habitat management, sustainable tourism practices, and environmental policies. Students learn about the relationships between wildlife, ecosystems, and human activities, gaining knowledge of how to balance conservation efforts with economic and recreational interests.  

 

Practical training is an essential part of the program, often involving fieldwork in protected areas, national parks, and ecotourism sites. This hands-on experience helps students develop skills in wildlife monitoring, ecotourism planning, and community engagement. They also study policies and laws related to conservation and tourism to understand the regulatory frameworks that govern these activities.  

 

Graduates can pursue careers as wildlife conservationists, ecotourism managers, park rangers, environmental educators, or researchers. The course prepares them to work in government agencies, conservation organizations, tourism companies, and non-governmental organizations, contributing to both environmental sustainability and the tourism industry.
