Strand Campus
Strand Campus sits along the Thames at London's cultural heart. Alongside world-class teaching spaces, students enjoy access to the pedestrianised Strand Quad, with Somerset House and iconic landmarks just steps away.
Overview
Discover our Environmental Science MSci — a four-year integrated Master’s programme preparing you to tackle urgent environmental challenges.
Our Environmental Science MSci is designed for future-focused problem solvers who want to understand Earth’s systems and address global environmental challenges through real scientific investigation. You will explore specialist topics, including climate change, ecology, natural hazards, and human–environment interactions, through research-led teaching in the heart of London.
With an emphasis on practical and technical skills, you will gain hands-on experience in fieldwork, laboratory-based analytical methods, Geographical Information Systems, remote sensing and environmental data science. All these will develop your technical and analytical abilities that employers value. When you graduate, you will be able to analyse complex environmental systems, evaluate human impact and apply scientific knowledge to real-world environmental problems.
