BSc (Hons) Environmental Management
BSc Environmental Management is delivered over three years of study - or four, if you choose an industry placement, you will develop and advance your environmental management knowledge and skills.
During your studies you will focus on core areas such as sustainability, natural resources, earth processes and the impact of people on places. You'll also have the opportunity to choose specialist optional modules covering topics such as Geographical Information Systems (GIS), environmental modelling and the environment's effect on wellbeing among others.
Learn more about the course modules in the section below.
Fieldwork is a key element of this course, and trips are aligned with the specialist modules to develop applied skills and gain practical experience. Residential field trips take place in the UK and the European Alps. Typical day trip destinations include the Peak District, the Yorkshire Dales, and cities such as Sheffield and Liverpool.
Embedding collaboration with industry and working on real-world projects is another essential aspect of studying environmental at Salford. In your second year you'll have complete a group consultancy project, where you'll work on a live brief, set by one of our industry partners, to solve a real-world environmental problem.
On this course, you will have the opportunity to take an industrial placement year between years two and three. Although you will be responsible for securing your own placement, we will assign you a placement tutor to monitor your progress and assess your final report.
By completing a placement year, you can add 'with professional experience' to your degree award. Industry placements are an excellent way to enhance your CV, gain hands-on work experience and build industry connections.
