<div dir="ltr">Hello Violette,<div><br></div><div>I've heard about two programs in the U.S. that focus on biological collections. Texas Tech University in Lubbock and a recently opened certificate program at the University of Montana (they're creating a new natural history collections course; that's what I read in June about them). I did my master's in museum studies at the University of Florida. If you have any questions relating to programs, please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi, I'm currently in my 3rd year of a bachelor’s degree in Biology of organisms and population in France. I'd like to go into the conservation of scientific collections and collections management. I'd like to know if you know of any master’s
degree that would allow me to do this, in the world of science and natural history! Mainly in England, Ireland, Scotland and/or Belgium (but it could be further afield, thanks!).<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">By the way, I'd be delighted to talk to people who work in this field to hear their stories and get their advice! Thank you all ! <u></u><u></u></p>
