With environmental challenges big on the global agenda, and an urgent need for action, there’s now a growing need for competent, qualified environmental managers. The BSc(Hons) Environmental Management will appeal to you if you’re passionate about the environment and want to make a difference in the world. You’ll study the core environmental challenges affecting the world today, explore the often-competing demands placed on global environments, and trace the growth of environmentalism and green politics. Learn about wide-ranging interventions, including policy and legislation. Unpick the science that lies behind key environmental challenges, and identify the stakeholders, tools and techniques needed for brokering and delivering positive, lasting change. Studying this in Bristol has particular appeal, with the city being the Green Capital in 2015 and highly regarded for its focus on environmental and sustainability issues. Drawing on our strong links with employers, you’ll benefit from placements, live briefs, site visits and guest lectures throughout.There’s also a focus on the emerging discipline of environmental psychology, which means we’ll look closely at how peoples’ attitudes, relationships and behaviour can help, or act to frustrate, environmental action. Building strong skills in research, data analysis, geographical information systems, project management and report writing, you’ll leave in a confident position to pursue your career.You could go into environmental consultancy, work with charities, NGOs or local government, pursue sustainability or energy management-type positions, or take your studies further with a master’s.
