Program overview

Degree

MBA

Study Level

Undergraduate

The global environment is facing unprecedented challenges. Climate change, rapidly growing populations and the industrialisation of developing countries are demanding more of our land and water. Scientific understanding, and knowing how to apply that understanding, are essential skills now and their importance will only increase in the future. A BSc Major in Environmental Science will focus on soil, water and biology in a connected landscape context to help us understand how land use affects the environment and the best practices for mitigating these effects. The Major has a core of courses in fundamental science and environmental topics, such as aquatic and soil science. These courses will teach students about environmental sustainability; the impacts on the environment of different land management practices and how to protect and restore the environment with a view to ensuring its preservation for future generations. The core courses are supported by a collection of elective courses related to the social, economic and legislative framework within which environmental science operates. Students can tailor the course according to the interests they have (and develop while at Lincoln).

Lincoln University is a uniquely specialised land-based university.

Helping our students grow is what we are all about. We encourage them to do it their way, with diverse learning that fits their ambitions in an environment allowing them to flourish.

Qualifications we offer range from certificate level through to PhD, and our teaching and research covers all activity associated with the land-based sectors to meet the needs of not only New Zealand, but also the world.

Lincoln students come from around New Zealand and from more than 80 countries, and our graduates can be found around the globe making a difference.

Our low student to lecturer ratio means more personalised attention for our students, and to support practical applied learning a large number of our courses have field trip components, visiting anything from a business, vineyard, or forest.

We help students to graduate with degrees that provide many varied employment opportunities. Our applied programmes prepare students for successful careers and our alumni have a 15% higher employment rate than graduates from other New Zealand universities.

It all adds up to, when the time comes, our students being ready to go out there and grow the future for themselves and others.

Some of our programmes are offered 'Fees Free'.  This applies to selected programmes for domestic students interested in postgraduate studies  https://www.lincoln.ac.nz/fees-free-study/.
