There are currently no new opportunities in the People and Nature Lab.
You can find various opportunities within UCL here.
MSc Ecology and Data Science
This new MSc, the first of its kind globally, provides students with the interdisciplinary skills, theoretical and practical expertise needed to apply cutting-edge innovations in data science, sensor technologies, and applied artificial intelligence to monitor and manage ecosystems and wildlife populations to understand and reverse catastrophic changes in global biodiversity.
MSc Ecology and Urban Engineering
The MSc in Ecology and Urban Engineering is designed to equip you with the tools and understanding to design climate-resilient indoor and outdoor urban spaces that work with and for nature, bridging the gap between ecosystems and the man-made landscape.

MSc Biodiversity and Global Change
The new MSc Biodiversity and Global Change focuses on the evolutionary and ecological processes that underpin biodiversity. The MSc will provide vocational training for those developing careers in applied conservation, environmental policy, and environmental management.
MSc Ecology, Climate Change and Health
Climate change and biodiversity loss together pose this century’s greatest challenges for health and wellbeing, from food and water security to emerging infectious disease, and tackling them requires integrating ecosystem-based approaches with public health and data science.
MRes in Biodiversity, Evolution and Conservation
Biodiversity is vital for providing food, fuel, clean water and other ecosystem services that our wellbeing depends upon. However, factors such as habitat loss and climate change are resulting in widespread extinction. Basic scientific research on the evolutionary and ecological processes that produced our present biodiversity, and applied research on how to preserve this biodiversity in the future are crucial for preventing further losses. This research-led programme is run in collaboration with the Institute of Zoology and the Natural History Museum, providing rigorous training and unparalleled opportunities across the full breadth of pure and applied research in evolutionary, ecological, and conservation science.

BSc Biological Sciences
Biological Sciences is at the centre of UCL’s world-leading research on biodiversity and environmental science as well as human genetics, healthy ageing and many more. Many current research experts from UCL and our partner institutes are actively involved in the teaching of the BSc and MSci in Biological Sciences. Our staff have included Nobel Prize Winners, including 2014 winner and current staff member, John O’Keefe.
Summer Studentships
Each year the Department of Genetics, Evolution and Environment offers a number of summer placement opportunities for undergraduate students.
The FLS Alumni Summer Studentships offer undergraduates with an interest in research the opportunity to spend up to eight weeks in one of the FLS research laboratories.
CBER Post Graduate Opportunities
GEE Fellowships
There are two different processes for Fellowships at GEE. The first is for Independent Fellowships. These are suitable for researchers with some postdoctoral experience who are ready to start up their own independent research programme.
The second is Short Term and Post Doctoral Fellowships. These are suitable for researchers who have recently completed a doctorate.
GEE Post Doctoral Researchers
GEE is home to over 50 research groups and a thriving community of some 200 Post-Docs, PhD Students, and support staff.
The Division of Biosciences provides a range of support for its postdoctoral researchers to help achieve their aspirations in both career and work-life balance.
There are loads of training, career advice, support opportunities etc
