Master of Sustainable Development

Climate change. Poverty. Population growth. Gender equality. These are the most concerning topics of the 21st Century.

You’ll analyse and synthesise complex environmental, economic, social and political information to identify and plan appropriate development solutions and contribute to debates about human-environment relationships.

Master of International Development

Despite the efforts of multilateral organisations, governments and philanthropists, around 10 per cent of the world’s population still live in extreme poverty – often without adequate clean water, food or access to healthcare.
