With input from industry and government partners, the curriculum blends rigorous scientific training with applied case studies, networking opportunities, and collaborative capstone projects to sharpen both technical expertise and transferable skills. Students may pursue one of four specialisations—Climate & Earth Science, Satellite Remote Sensing or Environmental Health—or opt for a broad-based pathway that provides a holistic foundation across sustainability domains. With a strong emphasis on authentic learning, the programme prepares graduates to tackle pressing global challenges, such as climate change, public health and geospatial innovation, while contributing to international sustainable development goals. Graduates will be prepared for careers in research, consultancy, policy, and practice across government, industry, non-profit sectors, and academia, where they can make meaningful contributions to a more sustainable future.
