This September, the Discipline of Geography (School of
Geography & Archaeology), NUI Galway launched a new Masters Programme in Rural
Sustainability. The Programme has been
devised in response to increasing attention on the role and
function of rural economies and societies in global, national and local
terms. On the one hand, we identify a
clearly emerging set of concerns associated with rural change and development
that have far-reaching implications not just in a rural context, but in wider
economic and societal terms. However,
the means by which such change should be managed to the greatest advantage of
rural places and populations requires the insertion of well-informed critical
thinkers on rural issues into relevant policy, practice and academic domains.
The official launch of the MA will take place in NUI Galway on the 19th December.
