Every environmental programme has a human dimension.
Many human problems have an environmental dimension.
The Masters programme is wide-ranging and timely. It takes the lead in developing a new paradigm of transdisciplinary environmental research which addresses the needs of government, businesses and ordinary people. It brings together the best of researchers and practitioners from six faculties of the University and recognised national and international figures from research, government, and industry. It gives students an opportunity to develop research skills and to gain a professional training that employers say they will value. The programme is offered within the School of Environment and Development and builds on international experience, regional and African contexts, indigenous knowledge and the University' s expertise in both rural and urban environments.
