This exciting MSc gives you the breadth and background that bridges disciplinary divides and tackles the environmental issues that face us all. It provides you with up to date knowledge of the contemporary issues and debates on the relationship between the environment, nature, culture and society.

The programme draws on expertise from across the University, especially from geography, philosophy, theology, science and technology studies and development studies. It will give you a critical, multidisciplinary perspective.

You will develop the research skills and abilities to assess the importance and implications of geographical, philosophical and other theoretical debates that shape environmental policy and practice. Our graduates are equipped to think critically across multiple disciplines, to generate new knowledge related to the environment, and to use this knowledge effectively to address urgent environmental challenges. This knowledge is brought into a range of contexts and practices, including environmental policy, conservation, education, public consultation, the arts, and PhD research.
