Cosa imparerai
The first year introduces sociology, economics, climate science, urban development and communication. In the second and third years, students shape their programme through minors and study at different European universities, finishing with a dissertation. This is a mobile European degree, so it is important to plan for living in more than one destination.
Who it may suit
The course may appeal if environmental change interests you alongside the social and economic life of places. Its interdisciplinary learning can support further study or interests in sustainability projects, policy and community development. Compare available minors before deciding how to shape your own route.
