Why You Should Study This Course

We know that we’re facing acute environmental challenges, and if we want to address them, we need to change the ways that we think and behave now.

We also know that environmental science, on its own, is only part of the answer – that solutions also lie in understanding how we think, how we respond emotionally to the world around us, and how we see ourselves within it.

Drawing on a wide range of subjects and disciplines in the Humanities, Sciences, and Social Sciences, our Environment, Politics, and Philosophy degree places the environment at the heart of what you'll study, as well as forming the basis for the practical projects you might undertake.
