I have been asked by a colleague to contribute this message to the list. A total of five funded places (via the Students Awards Agency for Scotland) are available on a Post Graduate Diploma in Environmental Management course for the session 1999-2000 at Bell College of Technology, Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. Enquiries are invited from interested students. The course is multidisciplinary in nature and aims to build on a science or management background to produce individuals with a breadth of skills to practise as environmental managers within an organisation. The course is delivered by a lectures, tutorials, field work & case studies, and includes a 12 week work placement (undertaken April - June). Our work placement students are highly regarded by employers and we have a strong record of placing successful graduates in jobs. The course is approved by the Institute of Environmental Management (IEM) under their Signature of Committment Scheme and been designed to train students to a standard to pass the Associate Membership Assessment Paper.
