Climate Change is a pressing issue facing society. Rising temperatures and sea levels, near global retreat of glaciers, alterations to precipitation patterns and frequent extreme weather events, climate-induced changes in biogeographical patterns and loss of biodiversity pose threats to current and future societies.

This BSc in Climate and Environment Sciences will allow students to explore many different aspects of climate change in detail. Climate change is the most pressing issue facing todays society and our ability to understand the causes, impacts and potential mitigation strategies is vital for future populations. It is also vital to increase our capacity to communicate this to the public.

This programme has developed in direct response to this clear need for graduates with the knowledge and practical skills required to tackle climate change.

This course will provide a fully integrated study of climate change and climate science. It will cover the scientific, political, societal, economic aspects of the science, with full discussion of cutting-edge aspects of the subject.
