The world around us all is changing at an ever increasing pace, and Environmental Science offers the key to better understanding and managing these changes. By investigating the relationships between the physical, chemical and biological components of the natural world the human race can actively develop solutions to varied environmental problems. Studies will cover topics including management of natural resources, sustainability, the impact of pollution, climate change, deforestation and habitat destruction among other issues will affect us in the coming decades. As well as its focus on the Sciences this major incorporates ideas from a broad range of disciplines - from geography to economics and politics, in addition to the philosophies and ethics that underpin activity in these areas.
