UCL’s Health, Wellbeing and Sustainable Buildings MSc is designed to meet the growing demand for specialists to drive the health and wellbeing agenda in the design, assessment, retrofit and operation of sustainable buildings. This Master’s equips you with the skills, knowledge and networks needed to advance sustainable innovation for health and wellbeing in the built environment.
Health, Wellbeing and Sustainable Buildings MSc was launched in response to the demand for a new generation of experts to drive the health and wellbeing agenda in the built environment. The convergence of the sustainability, health and wellbeing agendas has led to the emergence of a more holistic, human-centred approach to design, and made health and wellbeing an increasingly influential research area.
Students on the Health, Wellbeing and Sustainability MSc are taught by research-active leaders in the field and have opportunities to network with and learn from industry experts, to develop their understanding of commercially applicable, research-oriented tools and approaches, and to benefit from opportunities for hands-on experience and exposure to real-world scenarios.
Normally a second-class UK Bachelor’s degree in a relevant discipline (e.g. architecture, engineering, physics and other relevant disciplines in built environment and public health) is required, or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. If your first degree was not in a relevant discipline, please clearly state in your personal statement how your educational or employment background (including any internships or projects) relates to the programme and what you aim to achieve through your studies.
