Study sustainability through a business and economics lens. This course looks at environmental responsibility, economic trade-offs, regulation, reputation, supply chains and long-term value.
Suited to learners with an interest in business, economics, environmental policy, management or public affairs. Particularly relevant for those entering industries where sustainability is increasingly central to strategy and operations.
Both assessments must be submitted and both are marked. Your final grade reflects the quality of your work across both submissions.
A 1,000–1,500 word written task examining a real or hypothetical business situation through the lens of sustainability. You will analyse trade-offs, evaluate approaches and make a reasoned recommendation.
A 10–15 minute Viva with your personal tutor. Depending on the course, this may take the form of a structured tutorial, a defence of your written work, a presentation, a problem-solving discussion or a guided Q&A — designed to assess your genuine understanding and ability to engage with the subject beyond the page.
