Environmental Sciences with a Placement Year
Summary

Taught by world-leading researchers, this highly flexible degree programme will allow you to explore how the physical, chemical and biological components of the natural environment function and how they're impacted by, and affect, our society, politics and culture in this era of the Anthropocene.  

Our BSc Environmental Sciences with a Placement Year programme explores questions such as: How can we tackle the climate and biodiversity crises? What are the best strategies for achieving Net Zero? How are our oceans and rivers changing?  What physical processes drive our weather? What happens inside an erupting volcano? How can we transform our energy systems and achieve greater sustainability in our lifestyles? If these are the sort of questions that fascinate you, and you want to gain real-world industry experience in a placement year, then this degree is for you.   

The environment supports all aspects of our daily life but is also the source of some of the most complex and wide-ranging challenges facing humanity. The need for environmental scientists who can help us respond to these challenges and ‘make a difference’ at local and global scale has never been greater. This degree will help you become one of these essential people.  

At UEA, you’ll conduct experiments in our state-of-the-art laboratories, and develop highly valued transferable skills in data analysis, spatial visualisation and science communication. You'll also gain important field skills and have the exciting opportunity to embark on national and international fieldwork in places such as Greece, Ireland, Swaziland, or Peru. In your third year, you’ll have the chance to put what you’ve learnt into practice by spending 9 to 12 months working in industry, gaining invaluable work experience and building your industry contacts.
