Environmental Science

Cutting-edge research and award-winning teaching

We are a friendly and dynamic group working across a range of disciplines in the environmental sciences, from soil and water pollution to greenhouse gas emissions; from wastes to environmental economics, hydrological modelling, carbon foot printing, and pathogens. This work takes us across the globe – we have projects on every continent, from our very own research station near Bangor, to the Arctic, Brazil, and Indonesia. Our research also means that we influence policy at many different levels. When you study with us you benefit from the first-hand interaction with staff that are at the forefront of their field.  Explore these web pages to learn more about what we do and to see how we could help you excel in this fascinating subject area.
