Sustainability is a concept that is increasingly part of our common language, whether discussing climate change, community development, or nature conservation.

This course develops your understanding of sustainability and our natural environment within the context of managing the environment, natural resources and relevant human impacts. We'll also develop a cross-disciplinary approach to problem solving. A sound grasp of scientific, social and economic theories are backed by the knowledge of how to apply practical solutions in real-life environmental management. Regular site visits and field trips will broaden your experiences, and help you see your studies in a real world context.

Course programme

What Will I Learn

The first two years follow the HND Environmental Management and Sustainability. The final years are interdisciplinary and cover a range of subjects such as GIS, Climate Change and the Global Environment, and Conservation Management Planning.

How Will I Learn

Regular field or site visits are supplemented by residential field trips which allow you to broaden your experiences and place your studies within an applied context. The emphasis is on putting theoretical knowledge and management techniques into an applied and real-world context.

Honours Projects

In your fourth year you will undertake your own research project in a subject which interests you, drawing together all that you have learnt on your course.

Topics covered are varied: recent Honours Projects have included an investigation of plastic pollution levels on selected sandy beaches on the North-East coast of Scotland, the recreational value of river canoeing on Scotland and the potential impact of hydropower, and an evaluation of attitudes towards Scotland’s White-tailed Eagle population.
