Environmental Management and Sustainable Development (L7003)

15 credits, Level 4

Spring teaching

On this module, you’ll explore core ideas that define the ways in which the environment and sustainability are dealt with in real-world policy and practice.

You’ll learn from faculty with extensive experience of working with regional, national and international organisations. Our teaching introduces you to the key thinkers and ideas that fundamentally frame how global policy approaches are framed. And we guide you in developing a critical approach to evaluating these ideas in practice.

You’ll develop an understanding of this contemporary field, ready for your future career. 

Contact hours and workload

This module is approximately 150 hours of work. This breaks down into about 22 hours of contact time and about 128 hours of independent study. The University may make minor variations to the contact hours for operational reasons, including timetabling requirements.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2025/26. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
