SKILLS
ABOUT BRENDAN GODLEY
As the Director of the Graduate School of Environment and Sustainability at University of Exeter, I oversee a range of interdisciplinary MSc programmes that aim to create solutions for global challenges and foster employability skills for our students. With over 12 years of experience as a Professor of Conservation Science, I also conduct research, education, and administration at the Centre for Ecology and Conservation, where I collaborate with academic, government, and non-governmental organisations and industrial partners in the UK and overseas. This includes the University of Khorfakkan, UAE where I am a visiting professor at the Sharjah Marine Science Research Centre.My research interests span from marine vertebrates (turtles, mammals, birds, and sharks) to the impact of plastics in our oceans, methods to mitigate bycatch in fisheries, and the design of marine protected areas. I am passionate about applying science to inform policy and practice, and engaging with diverse stakeholders to address real-world problems and opportunities. I am also the theme lead for ExeterMarine, a network of researchers, educators, and students working on marine-related topics across the university. Through @ExeterMarine, I help to build synergies and showcase the excellence and impact of our marine work.
