Environment and Sustainability

This postgraduate course on environment and sustainability provides an advanced-level grounding in sustainable responses to a broad range of environmental issues. It explores the relationship between policy, practice and the ecological environment, and the development of effective strategies for addressing the threats and opportunities posed by environmental issues. As the course is offered through evening, on-campus study, it provides a distinctive opportunity for practitioners to combine study with a continuing career.

This course is designed to suit students from a wide range of backgrounds and is ideal if you are keen to develop a deeper understanding of the key drivers of environmental policy developments in the UK and internationally. It is relevant for managers with responsibility for environmental affairs in the public or private sector, members of a regulatory body, members of environmental pressure groups, or those with a general interest in ecological issues.

We offer this course as a Master’s, Postgraduate Diploma and Postgraduate Certificate. For the Diploma and Certificate you study fewer modules and do not complete a dissertation.

The Postgraduate Certificate and Diploma are ideal if you are interested in studying at postgraduate level for personal or professional reasons, but you don't want to commit to a full MSc.
