Cambridge IGCSE Environmental Management (0680) The syllabus is designed to teach learners about sustainable development in a world where the security of resources and life-sustaining systems is endangered by human impact. It draws upon disciplines such. Course Code: URP 3131 Course Title: Environmental Management and Planning AN ASSIGNMENT ON “CONCEPT, TYPES AND IMPORTANCE OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT” DATE OF SUBMISSION: 17th March 2014 SUBMITTED BY: 110434 Environmental Management Concept Environment is a fundamental and most essential part of our day to day life. (Env.) program is designed to provide a strong interdisciplinary grounding in environmental sciences. Management and decision-making skills are emphasized for the application of scientific knowledge to environmental problems and the evaluation of environmental policies. The Environmental Systems concentration in Geography focuses on the processes that shape the physical features of the landscape. Climate, geology, and biology interact in complicated ways to result in the weather, landforms, and life that characterize any place. Backnotes is a website inspired by Z-Notes which aspires to improve quality of online notes while keeping things free. We work on IGCSE and AS/A Level notes that we use and make ourselves.
Through a strategic partnership with the School of the Environment, we offer courses and certificates that give you the knowledge and skills you need to succeed in the rapidly expanding field of Environmental Management. Our certificate programs offer two levels of study in Geographical Information Systems (GIS), enabling you to first understand and then master the field of GIS. Our program will also soon include certificates in Environmental Management as well as Climate Change Policy and Practice.
Whether you work in environmental management, geography, biological studies or asset management, these courses can equip you to have a pulse in this evolving industry.

Environmental challenges require complex solutions, bringing together scientific, social, political and economic perspectives. GCU's MSc Environmental Management will provide you with the interdisciplinary perspective and diverse skillset to help solve environmental problems in a leadership role. You can help your community manage environmental concerns responsibly, making a positive impact and supporting the common good.
This degree course is accredited by the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM), the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) and the Chartered Institution of Wastes Management (CIWM). With the endorsement of four prestigious professional organisations, the MSc Environmental Management offers a respected credential that's relevant to employers around the world.
You'll have the option to complete a general course - giving you a broad understanding across a wide range of environmental disciplines - or choose among four pathways for specialisation.
- Waste - As society strives to use resources more efficiently, we must ensure waste is properly and safely managed. You'll study sustainable waste management, contaminated land and landfill engineering, reuse and recycling in the manufacturing sector and more.
- Energy - Global demand for energy has significant environmental implications, and renewable energy is just one part of a broader strategy. You'll explore energy technology, renewable energy, and building and energy performance.
- Water - Communities depend on clean, plentiful water to survive, but there are water resource challenges around the world. You'll study treatment requirements for the water cycle, policy frameworks for managing supply, international policy, wastewater treatment and more.
- Oil and Gas - Oil and gas operations pose environmental challenges, particularly off-shore operations. You'll learn about minimising the impact of emissions from oil production, exploring for oil and gas, and environmental regulations.
