Why study Environmental Science?
How can we meet our needs while protecting the natural world? Environmental Science explores this question by combining ideas from biology, chemistry, and geography. You will investigate ecosystems, climate change, pollution, energy and the sustainable use of resources.
You will also learn to collect and analyse data, evaluate scientific evidence, and consider different solutions to environmental challenges. Environmental Science is a great choice if you enjoy science and want to understand the issues shaping our planet’s future.
Where can Environmental Science take me next?
Environmental Science can support further study or apprenticeships in areas such as ecology, conservation, climate science, environmental management, and sustainability. It also provides useful knowledge and skills for careers in environmental research, consultancy, and policy.
