As it is Reading Week at Harper Adams, now is the perfect time for students to get out into the field and make their learning practical. Whether this is attending extra-curricular courses or scouting the local area for case studies, it is a great opportunity to work on your studies framed by your own interests.

However, you don’t always have to pursue this alone! The Countryside, Wildlife and Geography department are currently on a field course to Anglesey to survey forests and sand dunes alike. Led by Dr Andy Wilcox, Simon Irvin and Emma Pierce-Jenkins, the final year students are exploring the coast line and Newborough Forest, studying the variety of environments and wildlife within them that the Anglesey coast has to offer.
