MRes Geoenvironmental Engineering (Part Time) Online at University of Strathclyde

The MRes in Climate Change Adaptation aims to provide advanced study of key issues related to climate change, and particularly around how infrastructure will need to adapt.

The course links with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) identified by the United Nations, and in particular the different indicators associated with SDG13 on Climate Action.

This course is designed to cater mainly for graduates with an engineering education, and employees of public and private sector companies who wish to upgrade their skills to be able to tackle the complex issues relating to the current climate crisis, circular economy goals, and the design of engineering options for mitigating environmental impacts and promoting sustainable development.

An MRes offers a unique and bespoke experience; you can tailor your studies to suit your own research interests and career objectives. The course is largely research and project-based but there is also a taught element to it. The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering has strong industrial links which contributes to the overall student experience, too. You'll be taught by an interdisciplinary group of professionally qualified civil engineers, environmental scientists, geoscientists, environmental impact assessors and modellers, and social scientists.

An MRes takes one year full-time or two years part-time to complete. While full-time study is available to UK and international students, part-time study on-campus is only available to students from the UK or EU. You can also study this course part-time through online Distance Learning, over 36 months, offering a flexible mode of study. Distance Learning is available to UK and international students.
