Sustainability is now an important aspect being adopted across University institutions globally. Many sectors are now seeking graduates who are aware of the sustainability challenges we face both now and in the future, and how they relate to students' chosen field of study. 

​

Sustainability is a broad inter-disciplinary subject area which not only covers environmental aspects such as; carbon reduction, waste and recycling, travel, procurement, and biodiversity, but also social and economic aspects like; gender equality, health, education, labour rights, community development, and circular economy approaches.   

​

As well as offering dedicated sustainability degrees here at Birkbeck, there are also opportunities to take sustainability focused modules, and even align your dissertation or research to a sustainability theme.
