About the course
Aim
On completion of the course, the student must, at an advanced level, be able to:
- describe various environmental resources, their areas of use, and challenges from a sustainability perspective
- discuss the connections between different aspects of sustainable resource management including relationships on consumption patterns and demographical changes
- apply basic analyses within Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
- provide oral feedback on an academic text
- communicate knowledge orally and in writing within the field of sustainable resource management
Content
The course addresses resource use and challenges for sustainable resource management. Connections between different resources, as well as their impact on and by consumption and production patterns, are discussed from various perspectives, such as development over time and demographical changes. Examples of natural resources include land, water, minerals, and energy. These are related to topics such as food security. The course includes methodological parts in both Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as well as academic writing and popular science presentation.
