This flagship 1-year program is the first to offer Master’s students a comprehensive approach to tackling pollution by combining 21st-century toxicology with a foundation in environmental law.

Build the skills to protect a healthy environment

Offered through the Centre for Environmental Research and Justice (CERJ), this course delivers an essential skill set for resolving the present-day challenges faced by communities coping with industrial pollution.

This unique program fills a gap identified both by students seeking real-world impact and by partners in community organizations, green industry, and government. Sustainability-minded organizations across sectors have a growing need for team members who can navigate the complexity of environmental problems and solutions.

Graduates of this program will understand not only what the latest science is revealing about toxic chemicals but also the legal and policy structures by which lasting change is made.

Employability

Studying an MSc in Human and Environmental Health with law will allow you to develop specialist knowledge in both the biological approach of assessing Human and Environmental Health and the legal approach at protecting Human and Enviornmental Health. This allows graduates to pursue careers as impactful environmental scientists, researchers, regulators, and changemakers. The MSc will also allow students to develop a wide range of transferable skills that can be used for a wide variety of careers, not solely across Environmental Science and Law.

Graduates will have developed skills to enter the workforce through six key areas:

• Government
• Regulatory Agencies
• Industry
• NGOs
• Research
• Higher Education
