Summary
If you already hold a degree or have a background in sustainability, the MSc in Global Sustainable Development is a great distance learning course to take advantage of your previous experience and higher-level learning.
The course aims to:
Provide a sound, and critical, understanding of sustainable development, particularly with reference to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Show how sustainability is conceived and practiced differently across the globe. Show how sustainability is conceived and practiced differently across different sectors, and to critically evaluate how the UN SDGs interact with these sectors. Enable students to evaluate the role of individuals, communities, and institutions in delivering sustainable development. Foster debate and enable students to express reasoned, evidence-based arguments. This Master’s degree is delivered through distance learning and starts with a period of gaining a shared vocabulary and set of ideas around sustainability. This leads to investigating the various ways in which we might interrogate and analyse sustainability projects through a range of research methodologies and their associated techniques.
The optional modules will be sector-specific, thus the MSc will investigate the sectoral responses to the sustainability challenge in greater depth. It shows that SDGs interact with a range of social and economic activities in a number of complicated and interconnected ways. This allows you to evaluate projects and progress against sustainability goals more critically.
The Programme finishes with a significant piece of individual research on a topic of your choice.
