- Our physical environment has a strong influence on how we act, feel and think.
- We form strong bonds with places that are important to us and visiting or remembering those places can benefit our health and wellbeing.
- However, many environments don’t support our wellbeing and can undermine this. In addition, individual human behaviour often damages the physical environments we depend on.
- On this course, students will explore the relationship between people and their physical environment at every scale, from personal space in offices, to climate change awareness.
- They will gain the knowledge and skills to support the design, management and use of environments that benefit human function and health.
- The MSc Environmental Psychology course was established in 1973 and is the only one-year full-time degree in the world to focus on both sustainability and environmental design.
