“As a mature student on the Environmental Science degree it has been an amazing experience, meeting students from diverse background and working as a team when everybody has different skills and knowledge to contribute.”

Why study Environmental Science at Queen Mary?
The environment affects everyone, from global issues such as climate change and pollution, to more local issues such as the quality of rural and urban environments. Do you want to learn how science can be applied to understand and respond to these environmental issues?
The Environmental Science degree programme at Queen Mary University of London will help you to understand the complex relationships within the natural environment and human interactions with it. You can also combine your interest in Environmental Science with Business Management to understand how industry can make environmentally informed business decisions in an increasingly competitive market.
Our degree programmes in Environmental Science are flexible and are jointly taught by staff in both the School of Geography and the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences. Modules cover a wide range of subjects including pollution, climate change, ecology and conservation.
Studying in London provides you with an excellent opportunity to study and understand the environmental pressures of living and working in an urban environment, while an excellent choice of residential and non-residential fieldwork opportunities let you study the natural environment first hand.
