Climate Science, BSc (Hons)

The BSc in Climate Science offers a comprehensive approach to understanding climate change, encompassing its historical, current, and future impacts on Earth and human systems. This flexible program equips students with foundational knowledge in climate science, allowing specialization in areas like geological processes, isotopes, and environmental geochemistry. In the first year, core modules cover environmental Earth science, introduction to climate change, data science, and sustainability. Subsequent years explore topics such as the carbon cycle, past climate variations, and Earth systems, culminating in a research dissertation.Assessment combines coursework, tests, and examinations, with the final-year dissertation comprising a significant portion of marks. This method evaluates climate-specific knowledge alongside transferable skills in scientific analysis, writing, and project management, preparing graduates to address global climate challenges.
