Master of Science in Climate Change Science and Policy

Program Overview

The importance of addressing the climate emergency has never been clearer. Climate change experts are needed in government, business, research, and non-governmental organisations, to help drive sustainable transformation in changing environments.

Our MSc in Climate Change Science and Policy provides you with a solid grounding in climate change science, alongside a critical understanding of the context for action on climate change. The programme is designed for students with a background in science (through their previous undergraduate and/or work experience), and includes hands-on quantitative training with climate models and climate data. Graduates of the programme will have gained experience in a wide variety of climate science tools and methods, an understanding of the role of scientific evidence in policy, and a keen awareness of the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches to governing the environment.

The programme is provided by the School of Geographical Sciences, ranked first in the UK for 'Geography and environmental studies' research (THE analysis of REF 2021). You will join our research groups in analysing key areas of climate change science and environmental policy.

This innovative programme also allows you to develop a range of scientific and professional skills, from Python and data analysis to science communication, presentations, and interdisciplinary teamwork. There is a strong emphasis on carrying out your own research project.
