Course info
The programme, formerly entitled 'Recent Environmental Change' is focused on understanding those processes, both natural and anthropogenic, which have contributed to contemporary environmental problems and which threaten to transform our environment. Emphasis is placed on techniques for reconstructing recent environmental change, methods of contemporary monitoring and providing the context for predicted possible future consequences. This programme has a strong practical component within which there is specialist training in a wide variety of field and laboratory techniques. For a Diploma, students will complete and be assessed on eight months of coursework. For the MSc, an additional four months will be spent preparing and submitting a dissertation based either on a research project or a placement with an appropriate institution.
