Develop the tools to lead systemic change, embed sustainability at the heart of organisations and deliver transformative decarbonisation initiatives.
As we face a climate emergency, decarbonisation and sustainability are crucial challenges for organisations and society. We must adapt to the complexities of reducing carbon emissions across practices, processes, and technologies. This challenging transition also creates an opportunity for a new kind of workforce. We need climate-literate graduates with technical, managerial, analytical, and strategic mindsets.
It's time to turn ambition into action. Our course trains you to take on decarbonisation projects and sustainability initiatives across companies, organisations and society. Focusing on global citizenship, you’ll develop the climate literacy (scientific, organisational and socio-political) needed to lead and deliver positive carbon outcomes. You’ll develop your knowledge in areas employers highly value. These include systems thinking, critical analysis, creativity, and the collaborative and interpersonal skills to lead organisational and sustainable change.
A flexible and collaborative learning experience
We take a team-based approach to learning because the more experience of teamwork you have, the better prepared you’ll be for the workplace. Throughout the course you’ll work in diverse groups with students from a range of backgrounds for a unique educational experience.
From course to career
During your degree, you'll have the support of our Faculty’s Employability team, who run professional skills workshops, and one-to-one sessions to help you with your CV and interview preparation.
When you graduate, you could become part of something bigger — taking the world towards a net-zero future. You could go on to design and deliver decarbonisation solutions professionally. You could work in a range of organisations, including businesses, charities, NGOs, and government. Typical positions could include:
- Sustainability manager/consultant
- Net-zero advisor/manager
- Life-cycle Assessment (LCA) expert
- Carbon analyst
