Environmental Science

About this course

Environmental science is an inherently interdisciplinary subject, drawing on ecology, biology, chemistry, geology, geography, and the social sciences to understand how the natural world functions and how human activity is affecting it. As the consequences of climate change, habitat loss, pollution, and resource depletion become increasingly pressing, the ability to monitor, analyse, and communicate about environmental processes has never been more important. Environmental scientists work at the interface of scientific understanding and practical action, contributing to the evidence base that informs conservation, planning, policy, and sustainable development. At the University of Leicester, this three-year full-time Environmental Science degree is delivered by staff from Geography, Geoscience, and Biological Sciences, reflecting the genuinely interdisciplinary nature of the subject.
