BSc Environmental Science

University of Nottingham Malaysia
Semenyih, Selangor
What is environmental science?
Environmental science is concerned with the state of the environment, how it is changing, and the processes involved in those changes. With an increasing human footprint on the environment, and associated natural, societal and economic costs, this is a field of great importance and relevance for the 21st century.

Environmental science encompasses aspects of atmospheric, climate, soil and water sciences, biogeochemistry, conservation biology, ecology, and sustainable development. Our BSc Environmental Science incorporates all of these topics, as well as an emphasis on both fieldwork and analysis tools such as computer modelling and geospatial mapping technologies. The programme also features a strong interdisciplinary focus with insights from the social sciences to understand human behaviour and our impacts on natural processes.


How will I study?
Our Environmental Science programme comprises a range of compulsory and optional modules, enabling you to select topics that are of the most interest to you. The first year focuses on the key principles, theories and current knowledge in environmental science. Over the programme you will develop skills in the collection, processing, analysis and presentation of environmental data, and in scientific analysis and communication for the development and evaluation of policy.

Additionally, you will undertake practical training in the techniques of environmental management, including several field programmes to learn environmental concepts and techniques in real-world scenarios. Exposure to a wide range of perspectives on environmental processes and issues play an important part in your academic development and career prospects. Our programme will also provide the option to study modules contributed by other schools as well as inter-campus through exchange with Nottingham's UK campus.


Career prospects
University of Nottingham environmental science graduates are working in environmentally-related fields all over the world. Our graduates acquire the key skills and confidence for employment in environmental consultancies, conservation and research agencies, local authorities, government agencies and universities. Many graduates go on to undertake postgraduate research degrees in environmentally-related areas. You will also develop a range of sought-after communication, thinking skills and competencies that are applicable in non-scientific fields.

BSc Environmental Science
Another much sought after discipline in an ever changing landscape. Environmental science crosses many subject boundaries and we provide a programme which benefits from an entirely multidisciplinary and research based approach. You will develop an understanding of environmental processes and systems and gain skills in a range of ecological survey techniques through practical classes and field programmes. Topics covered include key environmental principles such as atmospheric, climate, soil and water sciences, biogeochemistry, conservation biology, ecology, environmental modelling, geospatial mapping and technologies, and sustainable development.

Your final year research project will utilise and further advance these skills and you will also benefit from gaining knowledge and practical experience of issues and techniques applicable both to Southeast Asia and global environments.
