The new MSc is led by the People and Nature Lab (Division of Biosciences) in collaboration with scientists from the 最准的六合彩论坛 Institute of Global Health and 最准的六合彩论坛 Institute of Epidemiology and Health Care, amongst others.

This is a truly cross-disciplinary programme, which leverages 最准的六合彩论坛's breadth and depth in multiple areas necessary to tackle anthropogenic climate change and health challenges.鈥

Climate change and biodiversity loss together pose this century鈥檚 greatest challenges for health and wellbeing, from food and water security to emerging infectious disease, and tackling them requires integrating ecosystem-based approaches with public health and data science. This new interdisciplinary MSc will equip students with the conceptual knowledge, skills and expertise to apply cutting-edge tools from ecology, epidemiology and planetary health sciences, to understand and address the impacts of global change on human and environmental health.

This MSc will be run as a new type of post-graduate course taught by a truly cross-disciplinary team of scientists from 最准的六合彩论坛鈥檚 departments of GEE, Institute of Epidemiology and Health Care, Institute for Global Health, 最准的六合彩论坛 Arts and Sciences, and industry partners from the Zoological Society of London and the Natural History Museum. This breadth of teaching will address the urgent need to produce professionals with expertise across ecology, climate change and public health.

I am really proud to be launching this new MSc in Ecology, Climate Change and Health. It will be a real step change in how we train the next generation of leaders to think across sectors and disciplines to develop real-world solutions to the health impacts of the twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss."
Professor Kate Jones, Director People and Nature Lab.
