The balance between human activity and the natural world is complex and delicate, and the role of environmental management is becoming more and more relevant to the future of society. Environmental management addresses the growing need to understand the impact of our activities and explores solutions which allow us to live more harmoniously with our planet and its ecological systems. Common topics of study include resource management, ecology, environmental policy, and sustainable development, and gaining a degree can lead to a career as an environmental manager, conservationist, sustainability coordinator, or policy analyst. Postgraduate study can involve explorations in many academic fields, including scientific research, social awareness, industrial impact or political policymaking.
