Course Overview
Offered by University of York, the MA Sustainability Studies provides a comprehensive postgraduate education in creative arts and design. Based in York, England, this Russell Group university offers a research-led approach to learning, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure. Environmental degradation and climate change are global emergencies, yet we live in a world that is ecologically and culturally diverse, and which is economically and socially unequal. Sustainable solutions thus require knowledge of the complex interactions and trade-offs between environmental, economic, social and cultural sustainability. Our Masters course provides this essential interdisciplinary overview, allowing you to specialise in the sustainability of ecosystems, communities, landscapes, buildings and heritage, or to focus on the interactions between them. International tuition fees are £27,250 per year, home/UK fees are £12,500 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 88% student satisfaction rating, and a 95% continuation rate.
