About

The state of the environment and the emergence of issues, such as environmental degradation, pollution, climate change and species extinction, are some of the major concerns of our time. Human activities are largely behind these issues, but addressing the impacts of human activities is also key to protecting and managing the environment for future generations.

This course is an ideal introduction to environmental studies if you’re coming from a non-scientific background. You’ll undertake a wide selection of foundational and advanced environmental units to develop the core skills and knowledge you’ll need to investigate contemporary environmental challenges.
