Program Overview

Program Description:

The Sustainable Development Masters at Middlesex in London will provide you with the theoretical and conceptual frameworks necessary to interpret the process of change in developing countries. We recognise the need to balance short-term economic gains for individuals and governments with the long-term needs of the environment and society. We have incorporated opportunities for work experience into the Sustainable Development Masters, which can be used as a conversion course if you have no background in development studies or to enhance understanding if you have relevant academic or work experience.

You will learn to assess the potential of interventions for long-term development. Links between the community and global institutions are explored as key elements in understanding the development process. Understanding sustainability, which is increasingly incorporated into policy-making at all levels, is a central theme of the course. Policy analysis is a core skill acquired and developed during the programme.

Setting Description:

This course is based at our Hendon campus in north-west London. The Hendon campus is home to the Business School, the School of Engineering and Information Sciences and most courses from the School of Health and Social Sciences.
