Sustainability and Environmental Management (Int) MEnv, BSc is a four-year Integrated Masters degree with a year spent at a partner university in Australia, Canada or the USA. It explores the environmental, economic and social implications of our decisions and attempts to find sustainable solutions to environmental problems.
Drawing on environmental science and ecology, you will develop your knowledge and skills in the science underpinning environmental issues. At the same time, learning opportunities in politics, economics, policy and law will help you evaluate societies' role in, and interaction with, changes in the natural world.
You’ll be trained in data collection and analysis and will refine your research skills in a research project and through hands-on field training.
A wide range of optional modules, such as environmental politics, climate change and sustainable consumption, reflects the breadth of expertise in the School. Pathways allow you to develop specialist knowledge and skills, which can help you succeed in the employment market.

Your first year provides you with the core skills and knowledge in your field. From year 2, you will have the opportunity to take modules in a chosen specialist pathway. Each of the pathways focuses on a particular aspect of your overall degree, providing specialist training for employment in that sector:
Business and Sustainability examines the interactions between these two spheres and equips you for a career in corporate social and environmental responsibility.
Energy and the Build Environment focuses on transport and energy and develops skills for a career in policy and planning.
Natural Resources and Biodiversity takes an interdisciplinary approach to biodiversity and natural resources management, preparing you for a career in environmental consultancy.
Earth Systems gives you in-depth knowledge of climate change, pollution and regulation, mixing social and natural science.
