BSc (Hons) Environmental Science at University of Chester

Programme overview

The BSc in Environmental Science is grounded in a conviction that the environmental challenges of the 21st century – climate change, biodiversity loss, water and air quality, soil degradation, the energy transition, and the just management of land – are inherently interdisciplinary in nature, and that the graduates best placed to address them combine rigorous scientific training with strong analytical and applied skills, an understanding of policy and governance contexts, and a capacity for ethical, evidence-led judgement.
