BSc Hons Environmental Earth Sciences

Environmental Earth Sciences focuses principally on understanding the processes that influence Earth s surface environments and how those are modified by both natural and anthropogenic processes. The programme addresses the main challenges facing society from climate change to environmental degradation and the methods employed to better understand how the oceans, atmosphere, biosphere, and geosphere are interconnected and drive environmental change. The degree utilises geology, chemistry, physics, and biology to understand Earth s surface environment both past and present. Applied training includes hands-on experience with cutting-edge techniques central to field and lab-based studies in environmental and geobiological sciences.
