The complexities of climate change demand diverse solutions across multiple societal sectors. Presently, we face gaps in suitable policies, institutions, and collective actions. DCU's MSc in Climate Change: Policy, Media and Society explores societal reactions to climate challenges and ways to enhance these responses. The program analyzes how politics, legislation, education, and media influence the comprehensive societal shift required to address climate issues. This innovative course provides students with essential knowledge and analytical tools to contribute toward building a sustainable, climate-adaptive future. While most climate-focused postgraduate programs emphasize scientific aspects, DCU's MSc in Climate Change: Policy, Media & Society stands out in Ireland by concentrating on humanities and social sciences, including media studies, policymaking, legal frameworks, governance systems, and political dimensions.
