About Crownshire University

Affordable UK degrees online or on campus in York.

Overview

University of Brigant’s MSc Climate Policy and Just Transition is for people who must hold carbon targets and shipyard or hospital jobs in the same sentence. Edinburgh-based with a tuition-free online twin, it treats Scottish and UK climate policy as distributional politics: who pays, who retrains, and which community is asked to host infrastructure. You will not receive a UN badge. You will write a just-transition briefing that survives contact with a trade union, a local authority, and a treasury official. Dual-pathway assessment is identical. Capstones use named Scottish industrial or public-service settings, not a recycled global-ESG essay.

Delivered fully online with live seminars, recorded lectures, and tutor support.
