Environmental and Business Management MSc

This MSc Environmental and Business Management at Bangor University is aimed at students with a strong interest in integrating environmental sustainability with business management practices. It is approved by the Institute of Sustainability and Environmental Professionals (ISEP). Sustainability is a principal goal and a key policy feature of many of the major institutes and governments of the world. A key element of achieving this is the balance of Environmental, Economic and Social development drivers. This course will take an integrated view of sustainability and environmental management within a business context and provide the specialist training that is required to fully integrate it into businesses and organisations and drive forward change and innovation. We are truly interdisciplinary, combining modules from The School of Environmental and Natural Sciences and Bangor's Albert Gubay Business School. Completing the MSc Environmental and Business Management will help you develop tools and knowledge to design and implement effective, evidence-based and innovative solutions to the challenges of our time. You will explore dynamic solutions to tackling climate change, sustainable waste management and biodiversity loss and learn how businesses can be a force for good in making a difference in ways that also drive efficiency and manage risk. This unique combination of subjects is combined with a strong focus on practical application and Bangor University has many of its own fantastic facilities such as Treborth Botanic Garden and an excellent research farm, Henfaes. These are put to good use for workshops and practical sessions, as well as many fascinating field trips to businesses and organisations large and small in the surrounding area. We enjoy close links with local, national and international organisations and have a lively programme of guest speakers from NGOs and industry in our lectures such as Natural Resources Wales, Environmental Consultancy companies and community energy social enterprises. We work closely with the ISEP regional group where students can make lasting connections with environmental and sustainability professionals as well as gaining employment opportunities and insights into their chosen professions. These skills are needed more than ever and graduates have found rewarding roles in sustainability and the environment in a diverse range of organisations including local government, academia, NGOs and multi-nationals. Our established partnership with ISEP ensures that graduates entering the sustainability profession are ready for the workplace with the expertise and understanding that they need to secure a job and drive change. We welcome applications from part time students many of whom join us from the public and private sector, adding to the rich mix of students on the course. As with all teaching in the University this programme aligns with the universal calls to action stated in the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals (UN SDGs). The specific SDGs relevant to the content of this programme will be highlighted, where appropriate, to students and the University's bilingual UN SDG badges will be incorporated in teaching materials. This course entitles students to free ISEP student membership for the duration of the course and on successful completion, graduates will qualify for GradISEP.
