Dear UKPN subscribers,
As polar enthusiasts we thought you might like to know a little more about our taught MSc course at Northumbria University, Newcastle, entitled ‘Environmental Monitoring, Modelling and Reconstruction’.
This masters course is a one year, full time taught programme with a strong research focus. It offers a great opportunity to learn and apply cutting-edge technological techniques in environmental science (where of course, you can focus on polar research techniques if you like!). Our applied approach allows graduates from any scientific background to develop the in-demand skills and theoretical understanding to succeed in industry, environmental management and consultancy, or further academic research.
This innovative Masters offers:
- A stepping stone from any scientific discipline to a range of careers in environmental management and consultancy, geosciences or further academic research
- A taught course with a skills focus – you will learn how to apply high-level skills required for core environmental roles in the workplace or further academic research
- A tailored experience – you will design and carry out your own research in conjunction with staff who are leading experts in environmental sciences
- A field trip to the Arctic (Abisko, Sweden) – a remarkable opportunity to practise a wide range of high-level data collection and analysis skills in a unique location (included in the course fee)
