Successful environmental policy depends on the ability of its makers to bring together scientific information, analytical thinking and an awareness of the economic, legal, social and political realities of environmental regulation. This course has been designed to provide intensive training in the relevant economic and legal concepts and techniques to equip you with the tools that will help you successfully design, implement and evaluate environmental policy in a variety of settings.

  • Equip students with the necessary skills to pursue careers at a high level in a range of areas, including business and finance, civil service, public service, property professions, environmental agencies and organisations, national and international agencies and further study.
  • Provide opportunities for education in a multidisciplinary environment so as to advance the understanding of cognate disciplines and their applications.
  • Provide opportunities for learning with colleagues from different social, economic and legal systems.
  • Provide students with appropriate skills and experience to enable them to use information and resources critically and to equip them with the means to undertake their own research.
