**Overview**<br/><br/>Are you a natural resource specialist? Are you interested in understanding how environmental issues affect poverty alleviation? Do you want to make development more sustainable? Seize your chance to take an MSc that offers a unique interdisciplinary approach. You’ll consider natural processes, social issues and political implications, giving you a unique viewpoint. <br/><br/>The interaction between environment and development is studied through analysing policy processes at local, national and international levels. You’ll look at a large cast of actors – including policy makers, politicians, business administrators, rural and urban resource users, to see how these interactions play out. Plus, you’ll use a wide range of critical and constructive skills, analytical techniques and contextual knowledge to advance your understanding of these processes. <br/><br/>A key focus of our MSc is on the political ecology approach to understanding debates and policy processes underpinning responses to environmental and natural resource problems. <br/><br/>Please note we are changing our name to the School of Global Development from 1 August 2023, as we mark our 50th Anniversary. <br/><br/>**About This Course**<br/><br/>Interest in the global environment and development has never been so intense. Environmental issues and problems have long been on local and national agendas, but increasingly over the last 30 years, on international agendas too. <br/><br/>All environmental issues derive from natural processes, but at the same time they are influenced by social and political factors. This is reflected in the uniquely interdisciplinary approach of this MSc. <br/><br/>You’ll study the interaction between environment and development through analysing policy processes at local, national and international levels. You’ll look at policy makers, politicians, business administrators, and rural and urban resource users. <br/><br/>And you’ll focus on the political ecology approach to understanding debates and policy processes underpinning responses to environmental and natural resource problems. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
