At their core, all environmental issues are social issues. Social science approaches allow us to understand the underlying causes and develop solutions to tricky environmental problems. Environmental Studies draws together environmental psychology, science and technology studies, critical theory, Mātauranga Māori, policy, and environmental ethics to help you learn how to create change. Working closely with our academic team, you will develop excellent skills for analysing and understanding information, communicating clearly, and conducting ethical research with communities. You will also be part of a community of learners-students and academics-who are committed to collective success.
