Graduate School of the Environment

Students are encouraged to understand environmental solutions through their learning at CAT’s Graduate School of the Environment. The MSc courses allow students a choice of modules with the option to study full time or part time. Courses are studied through a series of residential visits to the Graduate School where you will be required to stay for five nights at a time. This is designed for students to escape daily life and fully immerse themselves into learning new practices.

Flexible Learning

Whilst students will gain a full experience with guest lecturers attending the five night stays, the course materials can also be accessible online meaning that students can study via distance learning.
