It may be possible to study this subject on a part-time basis. The Environmental Studies course enables students to gain a deep and well-informed insight into the environment, and the scientific processes that control and affect it. The central theme is the development of an understanding of how different events and cycles within the environment interrelate, how they influence subsequent environmental events, the human impacts on these events and cycles, and the strategies that can be used to minimise the problems caused. Key aspects include areas such as Wildlife Conservation, Pollution, Global Climate Change, Energy, Pollution, Food Production, Population Growth and Sustainability.
