MSc Green Infrastructure

The MSc Green Infrastructure aligns expertise from Geography with that from Landscape and Environmental Planning. The course is the first of its kind to bring together the theory, practice and evaluation of Green Infrastructure. The MSc provides the foundations to understand why we need Green Infrastructure, alongside an understanding of how we transition from design to implementation. It is taught by nationally and internationally recognised experts in Green Infrastructure who will to deliver a course that trains graduates with the conceptual, practice-based, and evaluative skills needed to develop Green Infrastructure in real-world scenarios. The course benefits from an integration of cutting-edge research by University of Manchester faculty who are working at the forefront of investment, design and management of urban greening, sustainable drainage, health and well-being, economic prosperity, policy-making and nature-based solutions to urban problems.

We require a UK Honours degree with a First or Upper Second (2.1) classification or the overseas equivalent. Degrees in Planning, Geography, Earth Sciences and Environmental Sciences are desirable, but not essential
