The Foundation Degree in Wildlife Conservation and Rehabilitation will give the student an overview of the rescue, rehabilitation, management, and conservation of wildlife species. This includes both the practical management of wildlife cases from triage to release, and the wider application of ecological, ethical, and social issues affecting wildlife. The programme combines practical wildlife rescue and rehabilitation of native species with the broader studies of wildlife population management and conservation. The embedding of practical skills and professional behaviours within the delivery is designed to promote the employability of candidates once they complete the programme. Central to the programme is the treatment of wildlife casualty cases carried out on site by Kendal College Animal Rescue Centre.
