Higher Education - Moulton College Higher Education Student Receives Business Enterprise Grant


Current BSc Land Management student David Wallis is now the proud recipient of a business start-up grant from The University of Northampton to help support his new business venture in producing specialist wildlife telemetry equipment.

Over the last year David has been busy designing prototypes to develop into a range of commercial products, not least an autonomous method of monitoring small mammal populations using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. This very specific innovative technology will give an improved insight to support all manner of mammalian and landscape ecology research and development on a global scale, and provides a long lasting and cheaper alternative to conventional radio tracking.

David has been working with PhD student Emily Howard Williams and staff member James Littlemore, and the results of the first pilot study will be disseminated at a Mammal Society conference this year. Students studying at Moulton College are firmly encouraged to live up to their true potential just as David is doing – so why not you? To learn more, get in touch or check out our web-site!
