Summary

A new generation of graduates is urgently needed if we’re to make the crucial transition to a just and sustainable future. Our dynamic BSc in Sustainable Development with a Year Abroad will prepare you to address pressing environmental issues such as climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution and food insecurity.   

On this course, you’ll embrace the complexity of the challenges facing humanity, learning how environmental issues such as climate change are interconnected with social challenges like poverty and inequality. You'll explore how sustainable actions must be founded on scientific understanding, as well as environmental justice and inclusiveness. You’ll learn about the environmental, social, and economic dimensions of sustainability and develop the creative and critical problem-solving skills needed for major initiatives such as the transition to NetZero carbon futures. As your course progresses, you’ll focus on potential solutions to environmental problems, exploring strategies such as Indigenous knowledge, environmental governance, environmental law, rights for nature, social movements, market-based economic incentives, sustainability standards, and emerging technologies.  

Our BSc in Sustainable Development with a Year Abroad is an extremely flexible programme, allowing you to tailor your studies to suit your interests and career aspirations. You’ll develop key skills for sustainable development practice, including interdisciplinarity, data analysis methods, and ethical rigour. A special feature of the course is team-based ‘real world’ problem-solving through partnerships with regional businesses, charities and community organisations. Employability is central to the programme, and you’ll have the opportunity to take part in a sustainable development work placement in the UK or globally. In your third year, you’ll also study abroad at one of our many partner Universities across the world, taking courses that complement your studies at UEA.   

At UEA, you’ll join our close-knit academic community, made up of leading experts from multiple disciplines. You’ll not only learn from our world-renowned environmental specialists but also benefit from a truly vibrant academic environment.
