Program Overview

Environmental Sciences is by its nature a multidisciplinary academic field, comprising a study of the frequently complex interactions between the biological, chemical and physical components of our environment. The environmental science discipline has evolved over the last numbers of decades as key environmental problems such as climate change, air, water and soil pollution, sustainable development, deforestation, desertification and urbanisation to name a few, have become the focus of scientists, policy makers and the general public. Environmental scientists have training that is similar to other physical or life scientists, but is specifically applied to the environment. A broad scientific knowledge is required which involves a fundamental understanding of the physical and life sciences in addition to mathematics, economics, law and the social sciences.

 

Environmental Sciences at Trinity is a multidisciplinary programme with cross-discipline contributions from the Trinity Centre for the Environment and the disciplines of Botany, Engineering, Geography, Geology and Zoology.  The course is delivered through small-group teaching, lectures, tutorials, laboratory classes and field study, and these approaches are blended with the theoretical content to provide our graduates with the training required to become highly successful practitioners in this field. Fieldwork is a core component of the course structure, and students have the opportunity to attend a range of residential field excursions around Ireland as well as in the Canary Islands and Kenya. The staff that contribute to this course are all research active and are addressing key issues in Environmental Sciences across temperate, tropical and polar systems.
