Welcome to the School of the Environment

It gives me very great pleasure to welcome you to the School of the Environment at the University of Dundee. We are a vibrant and ambitious teaching and research community, with a commitment to excellence in all that we do. Social and environmental issues are at the very heart of the World's problems today and finding solutions to the challenges these bring underpin both the distinctive degree programmes we offer and our research mission. Our team of over forty staff take a pride in their research-led teaching and the high quality of our MA and BSc degree programmes, our unique suite of Master's courses and our supervision of PhD students. Our staff members are also rightly proud of their innovation in teaching, their enthusiasm, their approachability and their open-door policy to students. Overall we are committed to producing graduates at all levels that have the key skills that employers seek and our reputation for the high employment prospects of our graduates is well established. To find out more about our component disciplines - Architecture, Environmental Science, Geography and Town and Regional Planning - the various degree pathways we offer and the cutting edge research our staff are engaged in, please follow the subject links to the right. Please do not hesitate to contact us by telephone or e-mail if you would like to find out more about us, who we are and what we do. Come to see us on one of the University's student 'Visit Days' or make arrangements to visit on an individual basis throughout the year.
You are assured of a warm welcome.
