Integrated Masters - Master of Arts (Honours) - Environmental Sustainability and Geography

This course examines the interaction between people and their surroundings. Students will learn about the use of natural resources and how we can live more sustainable lifestyles.

University of Dundee's modern world uses vast amounts of energy, generates waste and pollution, degrades the environment, reduces biodiversity, and has profound effects on health and welfare. Students will study the principles and policies needed to help deliver sustainable development and consider both the local and global implications on natural resources.

Students will develop specialist analytical and communication skills that will help them work effectively with communities, individuals and other professionals.

In Geography students study the relationships between dynamic environments and population in different locations and at multiple scales. They will learn about major challenges facing the world, and develop creative skills in problem-solving, presentation, and communication.

Dundee's teaching is based on the research carried out in the department and is focused on three broad themes: creating just communities and places, shaping environmental futures, and geospatial and digital methods.
