Overview
Students of the Environmental Sustainability and Education degree programme from University of Padua will acquire advanced skills in the system analysis of the natural environment in a changing climate and will learn how to master the scientific method for research in natural sciences, the modern tools for environmental monitoring (e.g. remote sensing), data acquisition and statistical data analysis and storage, the principles and techniques of geological, floristic and faunistic investigation, and the methods for environmental impact assessments.
Career opportunities
Graduates work as life science specialists, biologists, botanists, and zoologists able to carry out natural resource census activities, design and implement monitoring plans, impact assessment, recovery and management of natural or semi-natural environments, draft thematic mapping (either biological or abiological), organise and direct scientific museums, aquaria, botanical gardens and natural parks.
They can also be employed in the field of naturalistic and environmental education to produce educational materials – including multimedia support – for schools, universities, museums, parks, aquaria and botanical gardens, and design and manage naturalistic itineraries.
