Whether you’re working in the environment sector, or want to move in that direction, if you’re passionate about creating a greener future and have a background in science, this course is for you. We’ll help you build your specialist knowledge and develop the quantitative and qualitative skills required to manage pollution effectively, drawing on a multidisciplinary approach to new and existing environmental issues.
This course is designed specifically for people who want to study while keeping up with existing work, family or social commitments. There’s no need to relocate, and no reason to pause your career, with flexible online content and part-time options.
You’ll study through a virtual learning environment (VLE), accessing a series of recorded lectures, instructor-led labs and computer practicals, as well as online course content including videos and reading materials, whenever it’s convenient for you. This is complemented by engaging online discussion boards, real-time tutorials and regular opportunities to chat online with your tutor.
We’ve also made it possible for online students to attend field trips virtually, accessing site information and field data online with video and audio guides to support you.
We require an Upper Second (2:1) Class Honours degree in a science subject (or the overseas equivalent).
