MSc Environmental Entrepreneurship

This unique course, running since 2008 – the first of its kind in Europe – meets the needs of graduate students who want to contribute to environmental improvement and the circular economy, and learn how to identify and evaluate business opportunities.

Throughout the course, you’ll develop skills that'll allow you to launch new ventures, strategies, products, and technologies that address society's environmental and natural resource problems. Although this course is offered by an engineering department, it is unique as it accepts students from all backgrounds (social sciences, arts, engineering, law, chemistry, maths, physics, geology, biology and business). Students are able to select class options from a wide range of subjects to suit their background. The course is collaboration between the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering and the Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship.

The course is suitable for anyone who'd like to refocus their career on environmental or sustainable entrepreneurship.
