ENVCHG 100
: Global Climate Change2022 Semester One (1223)
Climate change is one of the most pressing challenges facing humanity in the twenty-first century. Climate science and the causes of climate change are considered, as well as the historical record of climate change and its environmental, biological and anthropological impacts. The transdisciplinary challenges of social responses are explored, along with the perspectives of indigenous peoples.

ENVMGT 741
: Social Change for Sustainability2020 Semester Two (1205)
Explores the concept of sustainability through different theoretical frameworks and how social and environmental movements have mobilised around this concept over time. Critically interrogates what is sustainable, what is social change, and how can social change be sustainable in a global economy. Draws on case studies of current environmental issues and associated popular social movements.

ENVPHYS 100G
: Sun, Sand, Surf: Science of Aotearoa2024 Semester One (1243)
The atmosphere, oceans and land make up the dynamic environment of Aotearoa New Zealand. A range of phenomena with natural beauty can be described elegantly with simple scientific laws. This course establishes the physical principles underlying nature, empowering students to explain everyday environmental phenomena. These principles provide the foundation to unravel the science of Earth, climate and environmental change, and energy systems.
