This interdisciplinary degree draws upon the expertise of the School of Geography and the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences to offer a distinctive degree programme. You will have the chance to explore a wide range of themes including ecology, diversity and evolution, conservation, environmental pollution, river science and environmental engineering. Students undertake core training in environmental science research skills and techniques both in the field and the laboratory. There is a substantial fieldwork programme, with destinations including Scotland, Florida USA and New Zealand. Fieldwork options from the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences also offer our students the chance to opt in to other destinations, most recently Croatia and South Africa. Field work destinations and availability can vary year-to-year and also depend on the module combinations you choose. |
