Get ready to make a difference as you acquire advanced research and analysis skills as part of this Master's degree.

You will develop a balanced understanding of the socio-cultural, political and economic contexts that affect environmental management, and learn how these form part of decision-making.

How you’ll grow

• Gain advanced knowledge and skills in critical evaluation, problem-solving and communication.
• Hone the ability to apply your knowledge to real-world challenges and issues.
• Be able to confidently explore and interpret environmental governance and the range of policy, planning and management approaches.

Career opportunities

The Master of Environmental Policy and Management (MEPM) equips you with the skills for high-level environmental policy and management positions with government agencies, regional councils, environmental and business consultancies, industry organisations, businesses, non-governmental organisations and advocacy groups.

Please note, the MEPM is a taught master's qualification and therefore does not have the research component required for progression to a PhD. For more information on a research master's in a similar area, please see the Master of Applied Science – Environmental Management. 

This taught masters programme has challenged my thinking and changed my perspectives on sustainability. I now have the confidence to tackle a variety of complex issues with a wide sustainability lens and challenge the status quo.
