Master of Science [M.Sc] [Energy Studies with Specialisation in Energy Policy] From University of Dundee

Why study this course with us?

• Managing natural hazards is becoming increasingly complex due to a combination of factors, including the spread of cities into hazard-prone areas and the influence of climate change (e.g. more intense/frequent and irregular hurricanes). Managing these hazards therefore needs a holistic and multidisciplinary approach, which is what NHM at Chester provides. This ranges from studying volcanic processes and developing policies and emergency plans, to the use of the latest technology (e.g. dones) to map disaster areas. The range of skills developed as part of this course has resulted in our graduates being highly sought after by employers.
• We undertake diverse research activities that ensure enthusiastic delivery of contemporary content. These include countering the illegal trade in endangered species using DNA-based techniques; improved understanding of disease processes; cancer biology; microbiology; animal behaviour; and conservation biology.
• TheÊNatural Hazard Management and Biology course from the University of ChesterÊwill encourage you to become a member of relevant professional societies, such as a member of the Royal Society of Biology, and participate at organised events.
