Environmental sciences is the interdisciplinary study of atmospheric, oceanic, freshwater and terrestrial environments, coupled with an assessment of the interactions with human society.
The MSc Environmental Sciences course will give learners a rigorous understanding of the Earth’s natural processes, the impacts of human activities on the global environment and the strategies required for the sustainable management of natural resources. It will offer students a range of subjects to choose from and a wide array of career options, both in vocational employment and postgraduate research.
Students will explore the science of climate change and human adaptive response to increasing global temperatures and sea-level rise. Their training will also develop skills in the collection, analysis, interpretation and presentation of diverse datasets and the application of analytical tools such as numerical models and geographic information systems (GIS) to aid complex decision-making. These transferable skills are invaluable for the jobs market, and will support students to move into a rewarding career.
Past MSc Environmental Sciences students have been successful in gaining jobs within various sectors including government organizations (e.g., the Environment Agency and Norfolk County Council), NGOs (e.g., Green Alliance) and consulting firms such as JBA and CH2M.
