Are you curious about how to deal with ecological and environmental challenges that affect nations across the world?

You will explore questions about the environmental challenges current and future populations face as you learn to analyse and manage issues alongside the Brunel experts teaching this course.Planetary health is a global concern. The impact of human activity must be addressed and managed so that it do not continue to damage our ecology and ultimately ourselves.
