What is BSc Sustainable Development?
Why does pollution and inequality occur if we have the knowledge to prevent it? If we have tools to address climate change, why hasn’t it happened yet? You'll explore these questions and more, using case studies from diverse places, including North Norfolk, Lake Victoria and Indonesia.
You’ll learn to think critically, communicate confidently, and solve complex problems. You’ll benefit from our academic skills and employability programmes and small module sizes with individual attention to support you in your transition to university and beyond.
You’ll join our close-knit community, with experts from multiple disciplines all housed within the School of Global Development. You’ll make links with leading sustainability organisations such as the Norwich Institute for Sustainable Development and the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research.
