Master of Science - Global Environmental Sustainability

In this interdisciplinary programme, students will look at environmental, social, economic and political factors that shape sustainable development and translate theory into practical outcomes.

Aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the MSc Global Environmental Sustainability focuses on sustainability challenges and how one can develop localised solutions by looking at a range of place-based case studies. Through a combination of course content and student's final project, student will be able to develop a range of transferrable skills that expands their career options, such as:

• model scenario interpretation and systems thinking • data gathering and analysis • problem articulation and solution design • literature and sustainability plan evaluation • research communication • GIS (geographical information systems) • critical appraisal of the ethics of sustainability solutions • interdisciplinary thinking to develop solutions for action

Students will be part of a diverse and international student community, which will allow them to expand their global connections. This is also an excellent opportunity to broaden their horizons on global environmental sustainability through peer learning.
