COURSE CURRICULUM

The MSc Climate Change, Sustainable Business and Green Finance curriculum is designed to equip students with interdisciplinary knowledge across climate science, sustainability, business strategy and financial systems. The programme begins with core modules that introduce the science of climate change and its impacts on ecosystems, economies and financial markets. Students study sustainability in business practices, focusing on how organisations can integrate environmental, social and governance principles into strategic decision-making. A strong emphasis is placed on green finance, including sustainable investment principles, carbon and energy markets, and the role of financial institutions in supporting the transition to net zero. Quantitative and analytical training is included to help students assess climate-related risks, model environmental impacts and evaluate sustainable business performance using data-driven methods. The curriculum also explores climate risk management, helping students understand how businesses and financial institutions identify, measure and respond to physical and transition risks associated with climate change. Optional modules allow further specialisation in areas such as sustainable investment strategies, environmental economics, energy finance and responsible business management. Practical learning is a key feature, with case studies, applied projects and industry engagement integrated throughout the programme. Students also benefit from exposure to real-world applications through guest lectures, professional insights and potential work placement opportunities. Overall, the curriculum combines scientific understanding, business strategy and financial expertise to prepare graduates for careers in sustainability consulting, green investment, climate policy and corporate environmental management.
