Hollie Walker
Environmental Sciences Bsc(Hons)
There's a great range of choices and you can steer towards geology or geography, ecology or biology.
This degree enabled me to discover my passion for conservation, ecology and environmental hazards. By my final year I was able to specialise in environmental management and conservation.
Now I am the Red Squirrel Officer for the North East of Scotland, giving me the opportunity to make a real difference to the survival of an iconic native species in Scotland. My job is to raise awareness for the red squirrels’ plight, advise landowners on the best habitat management techniques to help red squirrels thrive and lead a co-ordinated and strategic approach to grey squirrel control.
