Environmental Water Management is of increasing importance to all types of organisations in the UK and throughout the world. There is a growing need for qualified and trained environmental water managers.
The MSc Water and Environmental Management course focuses on sound water management and the requirements of sustainable development. Students acquire expertise in the choice, design and implementation of a range of environmental management tools and methods including environmental impact assessment, integrated catchment management and environmentally sensitive river management. Studying on the MSc Water and Environmental Management course is the first step to becoming a Chartered Environmentalist.
Five core taught modules are taken and students then choose three optional modules. Students also complete two modules (Research Methods and Research Project) which specifically support them through their independent research project. The project can be based on an environmental management issue that interests students or is relevant to their organisation, and they will be assigned a member of academic staff who will guide them through the research process.
Students will begin their studies, both full-time and part time, with a core module in Sustainability and Environmental Systems.
This course is accredited by IEMA, a professional body for people working in environment and sustainability. This course entitles students to FREE student membership for the duration of the course and on successful completion you qualify for GradIEMA. Graduate membership is a launch-pad for future leaders within environment and sustainability and offers a range of benefits to support students throughout their career. They can then ‘fast track’ to Practitioner Membership (PIEMA) following successful completion of the work-based assessment of competence.
The course has also been accredited by the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM) which means that whilst students are enrolled on the programme they are eligible for complementary student membership with that institution. Upon graduation, students will be eligible to apply for graduate membership.
