AS and A2 Environmental Studies

Level: Level 3

Environmental Studies involves the scientific study of how the environment supports us, how we threaten these support systems and strategies for a more sustainable lifestyle. An ideal course for students who have an interest in environmental and ethical issues covering wildlife, conservation, and our impacts on the environment. Students should have a sound scientific background and be willing to think synoptically to connect up the different strands of the course.

We undertake a number of field trips and excursions including:

• Marwell Wildlife Conferences
• Trinley Estate agricultural visit
• Sparsholt College: conservation and fisheries facilities
• Dorset coastal and sand dune field work
• Great Bustard Project – Salisbury Plain
• TARCA – practical conservation
