Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

The Research Institute was initially established in 1927 as the Dnipropetrovsk State Hydrobiological Station. It should study the biological state of the Dnieper River before and after the construction of the Dnieper Hydroelectric Station and the creation of the first large water reservoir in Europe (1927–1932). The Station was reorganized into the Research Institute of Hydrobiology in 1934. Since those times, the Research Institute actually became the center of hydrobiological research in Central and Southeast Ukraine. Then the Institute broadened its area of research activity to Ecology, Zoology, Geobotany, Soil Science, Physiology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, etc. That is why it was renamed the Research Institute of Biology in 1974.
The first Director of the Institute was Corresponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Prof. Dmytro Svyrenko. Then this position was occupied by Prof. H.B. Mel'nykov, Prof. P.O. Zhuravel', Prof. I.P. Lubianov, Prof. O.M. Vynnychenko, and Assoc. Prof. A.F. Kulik.
We are proud that such outstanding scientists as Prof. P.P. Shyrshov, Academician, Prof. M.F. Yaroshenko, Corresponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Prof. A.P. Travleev, Prof. S.P. Fedii, Prof. L.H. Dolhova, Prof. A.I. Vinnikov, Prof. A.I. Dvoretskyi, Prof. V.L. Bulakhov, and many others were members of our research staff at different times.
Nowadays the fields of our research include but are not limited to:
- Nature Conservation
- Environmental Impact Assessment
- Biodiversity
- Molecular Biology
- Soil Science
- Steppe Forestry
- Ecosystem services
- Invasive alien species
- Pisciculture
- Biotechnology
- Ecotoxicology
- Biomarkers and Biomonitoring
