Introduction
The growth of the world’s population entails an increasing demand for energy resulting from the intensification of industrial production and agriculture. In turn, these exploit the environment’s resources and produce large amounts of waste and pollution. Consequently, new experts and specialists who will manage the environmental resources are required for the national and international economies in the future. The role of robust management in the land resources area will be crucial. The presented educational offer is addressed to those who would like to make an effort to study in English and gain the unique knowledge, skills, and competencies of this type. Expectedly, their involvement in land resources jobs will be necessary in the future in Poland, Europe, and other world regions.
Course overview
The proposed graduation program in LRM can effectively impart the knowledge and skills necessary to address today’s socio-economic challenges by integrating theory and practice. Because of these, the designed educational path is based on groups of subjects necessary for achieving relevant learning outcomes. The applied classification is as follows:
Subject Groups
- General subjects
including mathematics, physics, environmental chemistry, ecology, biotechnology, spatial engineering and natural resource management, geoinformation, and engineering graphics. These subjects will be presented in proper socio-economic and environmental contexts.
- Subjects linking socio-economic and legal issues
to create public awareness and effectively implement economic transformation processes. These will be presented in the context of covering a wide range of activities with special emphasis on a changing climate. They include the analysis of social, economic, and legal mechanisms of environmental impact and the development of strategies and solutions that promote sustainable development while reducing the negative effects of climate change. The discussed fields include environmental economics, natural resource economics, sustainability management, energy policy, public policy analysis, and social science, among others.
- Environmental subjects
that take into account inventory, valorization, environmental assessment, principles of air protection, climate, animate nature systems, soil and water environment, and circulation of matter and energy in the environment.
- Technological subjects and subjects, including issues related to technical infrastructure
are crucial for solving engineering tasks in spatial management. Among others, there are ecological construction, water supply, sewage disposal, landfill, energy, and transportation systems in rural areas. These will be completed by issues of spatial engineering, water management, agricultural and forestry technologies related to soil conservation, reclamation, revitalization, and regulations governing their availability and use.
- Subjects presenting techniques and tools of information technology
These are mainly aimed at areas like spatial data resources, ways of acquiring and processing, and health and safety requirements for working with data. Surveying, cartography, urban planning, construction, and environmental engineering are also there. This group of subjects includes principles of engineering graphics, too. The above-mentioned subjects are necessary for the planning and managing of space, both in urbanized and non-urbanized areas.
Career options
The study program enables the preparation of highly qualified managers. Its formation focuses on specialized content, including local government and spatial planning. It also includes modern methods of processing and analyzing spatial data and risk management in planning.
Graduates will also gain:
- business management skills,
- raise funds for local development,
- and identify risks from industrial production, agricultural production, exploitation of environmental resources, and electricity demand.
Within the study program’s framework, special emphasis is placed on managing environmental resources, focusing on their rational use to ensure proper spatial and environmental management. Effective spatial management and planning knowledge includes their use, diagnosis, analysis, and monitoring.
The LRM degree program prepares graduates to manage the global economic landscape’s complexities effectively. Against the backdrop of global challenges, the program will enable graduates to effectively engage with issues related to:
- urbanization,
- sustainable development and environmental management,
- and urban planning at various levels—from local to global.
The proposed LRM degree can effectively impart the knowledge and skills necessary to address today’s socio-economic challenges by integrating theory and practice.
