Be a global
problem-solver
Depleting resources, pollution, the loss of biodiversity, climate
change: You know the problems, but what are we going to do
about them?
These are complex issues, made all the more challenging
by a rapidly growing global population causing urbanisation
pressures, which itself raises complicated problems of
sustainability, community integrity, security, and equality.
Solving them is no easy matter, and there’s no ‘one size fits all’
answer. If the answer is a systems approach, then it needs to
consider a whole range of systems!
But just because the issues are complex doesn’t mean we can
ignore them. There’s too much at stake.
Lincoln University’s programmes are committed to help feed
the world, protect the future, and live well. These include two
specialist, but multi-disciplinary degrees in the sustainable
transformation of land, people and economies:
• Bachelor of Environmental Management and Planning
• Bachelor of Environmental Policy and Planning (Honours)
Why not join the cause and become a global problem-solver?

The world needs Lincoln.
The world needs you.
