Griffith is ranked 151-175 in Social Sciences worldwide.
Environmental Sustainability: Environmental sustainability is the world’s biggest issue.

In this major, you’ll study environmental politics, climate change policy, the economics of natural resources, and environmental ethics and culture.
There are also opportunities to undertake an internship in an area of your interest and join a global study tour.
