Careers

Our Environmental Management degree will prepare you to work in many sectors, analysing and addressing environmental issues and challenges.

As a graduate, you’ll be ready to work as a consultant, analyst or strategist in environment-focused organisations, but also in industries ranging from manufacturing and food processing, to construction and engineering. Or you may choose to work for yourself, given the opportunities in data science.

Meanwhile your problem-solving, numerical and analytical skills will be attractive to employers in industries such as IT, finance and retail.

Our free Employability Service will help you take practical steps to follow your chosen career path, secure jobs and work experience, or even start your own business.

You might decide to stay at ARU and study for a Masters. We’re planning a range of postgraduate degrees at ARU Peterborough, and there is a selection of existing courses in Cambridge and Chelmsford.

Employability and personal career development

Informed by employers, our courses support an integrated approach to employability. You’ll have opportunities to develop the skills and abilities they are looking for and gain a deeper understanding of how your academic learning relates to the world of work through Live Briefs and Ruskin Modules.

To amplify your career ambition, you will need to actively dedicate time outside of your studies, whether you choose to explore placements, internships or volunteering. Or you could make a social impact by collaborating with our partner organisations through our volunteer scheme Students at the Heart of Knowledge Exchange (SHoKE). These all give you an edge, providing you with experience that you will be able to evidence on your CV and talk about in interviews.

Our Employability and Careers Service offers a range of expert advice and support to build your unique professional profile, including tailored career appointments, advice on writing your CV, and help to complete job applications. You’ll have 24/7 access to the Careers Centre, our comprehensive online digital resource, which empowers you to start building a Personal Career Development Plan from the very start.
