Course overview
Environmental management involves the protection and conservation of natural resources, from the air we breathe, to the water we drink to the ecosystems that support life to the renewable and non-renewable energy and materials that are exploited for modern living and the disposal of waste.
Human activities exert a profound impact on the natural world but with concerted environmental stewardship from the local to global level, negative environmental impacts can be minimised to ensure long-term sustainability
On this course you benefit from an applied and multi-disciplinary approach, gaining a working knowledge of biology, chemistry, ecology, geography, geology, and the social sciences, delivered by research and practice-led teaching staff, drawing on case studies and active academic and professional experience.
You gain knowledge and skills needed to navigate the scientific, social, technological, and regulatory aspects of an environmental management career. You learn how to communicate scientific principles clearly and effectively to a range of stakeholders from local community members/groups to national/international governing bodies.
On the MSc Environmental Management (Advanced Placement) programme, the second year is spent with an external organisation or in an internal internship with one of our academic experts. You gain experience as a professional engaged in applied research and/or environmental management-relevant work.
