Course description
What will you study?
There is a choice of two paths to take with this MSc. Path B allows you to omit the Waste Management and Contaminated Land Remediation module – which examines the types, sources and effects of environmental contaminants and their effects on ecosystems and human health – and concentrate more on the management studies modules.
The sustainable environmental development modules enable you to evaluate the changing nature of human interaction with the environment; examine current conservation policy, strategies and issues; and look at the involvement and response of commercial, industrial and public sectors to environmental issues. The management studies modules give you an insight into how the business world operates and will introduce you to marketing concepts and people management skills.
