Work in the environment sector, be it research, consultancy or management, requires employing awide set of skills ranging from process understanding to problem solving and decision making. The Masters by Research (MRes) in Science of the Environment was established in 1990 to address the training needs in this area at masters level by providing one year of full time training for people wishing to develop their careers in the environment sector.

On this programme you will receive different forms of training. You can develop subject areas of interest through your choice of subject specific modules and a research project. The opportunities to either specialise or generalise are offered by the breadth and depth of the academic portfolio of the Lancaster Environment Centre. You also develop key transferable skills in data analysis, project management, scientific writing and presentation. You also take one module on the interactions between society and the environment in order to develop an understanding of the importance of societal issues in environmental management.

Many of our MRes students go on to study for a PhD. Many others begin careers in the environmental consultancy industry. This programme is supported by full Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) studentships.
