Environmental Science (with Foundation Year)

About this course

Environmental science is the interdisciplinary study of the natural environment and the complex ways in which human activity interacts with it. It draws on ecology, chemistry, geology, hydrology, geography and policy science to understand processes including climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, land use change and the sustainability of natural resources. Environmental scientists are essential contributors to the evidence base that informs policy, planning and management decisions with environmental consequences. At Hartpury University, this four-year programme includes a foundation year that provides an alternative route into degree-level study, ideal for those who need to build subject-specific knowledge and skills before progressing to the full BSc qualification. Once on the main degree, you will develop a thorough understanding of environmental processes, ecological systems
