Our Environmental Science MSci is designed for future-focused problem solvers who want to understand Earth’s systems and address global environmental challenges through real scientific investigation. You will explore specialist topics, including climate change, ecology, natural hazards, and human–environment interactions, through research-led teaching in the heart of London. With an emphasis on practical and technical skills, you will gain hands-on experience in fieldwork, laboratory training, GIS, remote sensing and environmental data science. All these will develop your technical and analytical abilities that employers value. When you graduate, you will be able to analyse complex environmental systems, evaluate human impact and apply scientific knowledge to real-world environmental problems. **Key benefits** * This four-year integrated programme leads to a Master’s level degree in Environmental Science, allowing you to progress from foundation knowledge to advanced Master's level research within a single programme. * Gain an understanding of Earth systems, from global climate processes to local ecological dynamics. * You will explore a range of environmental science disciplines, including hydrological systems, ecology, atmospheric science, Earth surface science, sustainability and natural hazards. * You will gain technical skills through fieldwork and laboratory training, training in GIS and report writing and science communication. * Develop analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a focus on evidence-based reasoning and quantitative methods. * Take your first steps towards a career in a variety of sectors including areas such as development and environmental justice.
A level: AAA | Must include grade A in at least one of Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics or Computer Science.
