Bachelor
By studying how human activity impacts our planet, environmental scientists help shape policy and environmental regulations to create sustainable solutions. This degree will teach you the theory and practical skills you need to influence decisions by providing guidance on how to create a balance between economic, social and environmental concerns. A hands-on learning experience allows students to tackle real-world problems and fieldwork is a key feature of a number of courses in the degree. Fields of study include biology, earth science, ecology, environmental chemistry, geography and marine science.
