Degree details

What you'll learn

Our river basins or catchments have been progressively transformed over time. We've built cities, we,ve cleared land for food production, and this has had profound consequences for our catchments.

With this specialist degree you'll learn to combine and use scientific, engineering and economic knowledge to planning ways to protect, restore and rehabilitate our catchments. You'll develop the leading edge knowledge and skills needed to make a difference in this rapidly developing area of professional practice.
