Environment, Culture & Communication (Dumfries Campus) [MLitt]

My general experience so far has been great. I am extremely fortunate to live in an understudy level with four other individuals that I get on well with, two of which have turned out to be dear companions. There are likewise heaps of spots accessible to go to think. The city is enthusiastic and offers all that could possibly be needed chances to spend time with companions and enjoy a reprieve from exams.

This programme focuses on the emerging subject area related to ecocriticism and green studies in order to better understand environmental issues from multiple perspectives. Teaching is closely linked with the Solway Centre for Environment & Culture, a research centre providing opportunity for further research and collaboration. The degree features a programme of guest speakers from relevant fields and publications. The School of Interdisciplinary Studies is one of the UK’s foremost pockets of expertise in interdisciplinary environmental teaching and research. Dumfries & Galloway, in south west Scotland, is an ideal location for environmental study and research. The unspoilt beaches, hills and forests provide a stunning and diverse outdoor classroom, while the region’s thriving artistic community, which specialises in environmental art, is a great source of inspiration.
