Course summary
Study Climate Science at Liverpool and learn to understand the fundamental science behind our changing climate. It’s a great choice for those looking to take an active role in developing solutions to current and emerging global environmental challenges. You’ll study in depth the threats that climate change poses to our earth system, biodiversity and public health, from warming and rising sea levels to habitat and biodiversity loss.This course aims to provide students with core knowledge on the impact of climate change through modules in ocean sciences, ecology, and physical and human geography. There is a focus on developing problem solving, numerical and practical skills through training in numerical coding, laboratory classes and research-focused projects.Alongside learning about the fundamentals of climate science, you’ll also be introduced to adaptation and mitigation options, and sustainability.We have strong links with scientists from the National Oceanography Centre in Liverpool, who provide guest lectures and supervision of projects. Our staff contribute to IPCC reports and the recent COP26 meeting, and provide evidence on how our oceans are responding to climate change to government departments.Please note that this course may be subject to change, and is pending formal validationA number of the School’s degree programmes involve laboratory and field work.
