Enabling students to pursue impactful careers

As the environment sector grows to meet new challenges and rising consumer demand, so does a wealth of new career opportunities.

Employers are increasingly recognising the importance of sustainability and there are many diverse roles available in the field – from environmental law to clean energy, sustainable healthcare and more.

Roles can be found in a wide range of settings, including policy and government, supermarkets and businesses, international development and conservation.

King’s students are enabled to develop the skills they need to pursue a career in sustainability through a range of opportunities, trainings, pathways and more.
