Programme overview
Sustainable development is now one of the key policy drivers in western societies. Sustainability pervades decision making at the global, national, regional and local levels and is becoming embedded politically in all layers of government. Both public agencies and private organisations need to appreciate the sustainability agenda, and what it means for them and their employees.
Our MSc Sustainable Development is designed to respond to this emerging agenda and approaches sustainable development from a holistic and multi-disciplinary perspective to offer you both a thorough grounding in the principles that underlie sustainability and the means by which to implement these principles in a range of contexts. The programme has been developed in consultation with a wide range of stakeholders, representing employers and organisations from the private, public and voluntary sectors.
The Distance Learning pathway, delivered entirely online, can be studied from anywhere in the world as attendance in Exeter is not required.
Two Sustainable Development Masters programmes are available at our Cornwall Campus: MSc Sustainable Development and MSc Sustainable Development (Climate Change and Environment).
