The Lancaster Environment Centre (LEC) forms one of the largest centres for environmental research in Europe.  At the heart of LEC is a fundamental commitment to ensure that our research and teaching is driven to deliver academic excellence and real world impact.

LEC has established clear areas of research to address some of the most pressing issues of the 21st century.  Our inter-disciplinary research themes focus on atmospheric science, biodiversity and global change, catchment and aquatic processes, environmental geosciences and the relationships between the environment and society. This provides a strong research-based environment for the provision of training and education programmes at postgraduate level creating a vibrant environment for postgraduate students. 

Postgraduate students are taught by and work with world-class scientists in a wide range of environmentally related disciplines, thereby enhancing your future employment prospects in the environment sector and beyond.  Joining LEC will expand your understanding of the key areas of the environment and will provide you with the relevant skills required for a successful career.
