B.Sc. in Marine Environment and Sustainable Development

This program is only offer on regular mode through specific Approved Support Centers; no Distance or Directed Independent Study facility is available. Marine environmental science involves a wide range of scientific disciplines (physical, chemical, biological and social) brought together to understand how the marine environment functions and human activities affect environmental processes in the sea. It provides an integrated, quantitative and interdisciplinary approach to the study of marine environmental systems and encompasses issues such as marine pollution, climate change, conservation, coastal management and protection, and the use of natural resources.

Whilst the oceans cover over 60 per cent of the surface of the Earth, there is a remarkable shortage of scientists qualified to understand the marine environment. In recent years there has been an increasing public and scientific awareness of the harm that is being done to the oceans, including increasing levels of pollution and the extinction of species of marine animals. This course prepare students to fulfill the aims to provide better protection for our marine wildlife and habitats, and improve planning and management of our seas and resources. Employers including local authorities, environmental agencies, consultancies, engineering and construction firms, and environmental conservation organisations are looking for highly skilled people who can exert a positive and informed scientific influence on all types of activities that have an impact on the marine environment, in order to safeguard marine resources for future generations.
