Overview

To address environmental challenges, we don't just need to understand the science behind how the world is changing. We also need to understand how the relationship with our environment is shaped by human behaviour, beliefs, values and structures. Studying how human interactions with the natural environment have changed over time, and how those interactions have been explored in culture, is essential to tackling contemporary environmental concerns.

In addition, the Environmental Humanities programme from University of Bristol offers an international perspective, exploring interactions between cultures and environments from across the world. Teaching methods include field trips and workshops as well as seminars and one-on-one tuition, while innovative assessment design encourages collaboration between students and enables them to develop interests through practical projects (such as filmmaking and exhibition design) as well as more traditional essays.

Career prospects

Our graduates go on to a wide range of careers, including media, publishing, environmental consulting, environmental law, planning, teaching, politics, local and national government, and business. The core units on our MA include discussion of potential career pathways and how to prepare for them.

The MA in Environmental Humanities also provides a strong foundation for those wishing to pursue further academic research at doctoral level and beyond, by teaching you advanced independent research skills and clear and concise writing.
