This Masters in Environment, Culture & Communication explores the relationships we hold with our ‘wild’ environments, and how these have evolved. You will develop a knowledge of environmental debates from both cultural and scientific perspectives and learn to communicate environmental issues using a variety of tools and strategies. This programme is suitable for students with or without a specialism in literary or environmental studies.
2.1 Hons (or non-UK equivalent) in any subject.
Prospective students with professional experience in communications/journalism may be considered, in complement to their academic qualifications.
All applicants must provide a personal statement (minimum 500 words) outlining your suitability for this programme.
Graduates are prepared to enter fields from environmental journalism and education, to public relations, advertising and consultancy roles.
The interdisciplinary nature of the programme means your skills are also tailored towards emerging fields such as negotiating between scientific fact and cultural understanding of climate change, and the ‘anticipatory history’ that must inform landscape management in the future.
Graduates have gone on to work for environmental NGOs, ecological arts organisations, and undertaken further study at PhD level.
