Environmental Science
Broaden your world view by examining climate change through the ages, from shifts in the past (and their effect on human development) to the political implications of current trends.
Learning
Outline
What drives atmosphere change? How do we measure pollution? How are we coping with the impending threat of global warming? Answer all the questions inspiring your environmental curiosity on our eye-opening Environmental Science course. We’ll explore the political and economic context of environmental issues, reconstructing climates and what it means to be truly sustainable for an efficient, just world today and in the future.
Teaching methodology
Learn the Oxford way with tutorial-style teaching. Your expert tutor will foster self-directed learning and critical thinking through interactive seminars in small groups (no bigger than 8). During your course, you will complete two pieces of independent work (essays or problem sheets), which your tutor will then evaluate in either a 1:1 or 2:1 tutorial. Tutorials will provide you with the opportunity to discuss your work and feedback with your tutor and learn new perspectives from your classmates. On completion of the course, you'll receive a certificate and letter of recommendation from your tutor.
The Summer Courses experience
Hosted within the hallowed halls of Oxford Colleges, students delve into subjects under the guidance of experts, fostering curiosity and critical thinking in a diverse, multicultural setting. The fusion of social activities and academic pursuits nurtures independent growth, complemented by empowering masterclasses and university fairs. 'Insider info' handbooks assist students in maximising their free time, while a gradual increase in freedom accompanies them through different age groups. This inclusive and welcoming environment encourages independent thinking, allowing you to explore your passions freely. Discover subjects you love without the constraints of traditional expectations, providing abundant opportunities for both personal and academic growth.
