MRes in Climate and Earth System Science at University of Bristol

Masters Degree in Climate and Earth System Science

at the University of Bristol

Concern about global environmental change has never been greater. The University of Bristol’s Master of Research (MRes) degree in Climate and Earth System Science is tailored to meet the growing demand for strongly numerate and technically able graduates who can apply their skills in this challenging policy-influencing domain.

Co-directors:

Professor Derek Vance (Earth Sciences)
Dr. Dan Lunt (Geography)
Dr. Richard Pancost (Chemistry)

The Masters is an interdisciplinary program which is run across 3 Schools that each have world-class research groups in three key areas of the science:

Observation and tracing of Earth System change

Modelling of the Earth System, from simple box models

Understanding past climate change, and making predictions of future change.

The course reflects this tri-partite strength and seeks to produce a new kind of graduate who is comfortable with the technology required to make 21st century observations, who is able to quantitatively analyse the data produced by these observations, and who can apply their skills and knowledge both to understanding past climate and to laying out scenarios for future climate.
