Programme Description
The Master of Science in Applied Environmental Science takes an interdisciplinary approach into the investigation of processes that control the earth and its environment. The programme will deliver all necessary knowledge and skills to seize opportunities presented by new developments in areas such as global cycles, biogeochemistry, sustainable technologies, waste and water treatment, environmental pollution assessment and remediation, and natural hazard.
Students will be exposed to a wide variety of environmental issues, with topics related to the analysis, understanding and management of human-environmental systems by exploring the basics of system analysis and ecosystem theory. By understanding human-environmental interactions through land-use conflicts between agriculture, environmental protection, urban expansion, water management, tourism etc., students will be able to link advanced methods of system analysis and ecological modelling with modern methods of natural resource management. Issues associated with the relationship between material/energy resources, the environment and sustainable development will be a recurring theme in this programme.
