I really enjoyed this course. I liked the course videos presented. I also liked that we had to done essays. It was a nice and easy way to learn guided by those videos. I would recommend Steffen Foss Hansen as an excellent instructor to those looking to take this course, he is great!. Laud Klausen it is great too! Thank you DTU for this course!
The course will add a lot of value to my career and judgement in regards to Environmental matters. I feel much confident and capable to discuss ethics, principles and foundations of environmental sciences. The facilitators are incredibly amazing.

The content is very complete. I was introduced to a range of new terms and topics that have given the tools to further study by myself.
This course truly made me think about us as a species and our purely negative impact on the environment.
Excellent course and materials, great tutors, good help on the website, very encouraging

It is a very useful course for those who are interested in learning Land ethics, Deep ecology, Decision tools, and Environmental regulations & and principals.
Hello, the course consists of 6 weeks. I am stuck for 4 weeks in DPSIR tasks , all other weekly tasks are fully completed. DPSIR sent the task several times, received scores of 75-80 % each time, but for some reason the received scores did not come out in the final tableau because of it, the deadline was reset several times. Will I ever finish this course? I don't understand what the problem is, I want to get a certificate.
This course was way indept and well thought, assignments were a bit difficult and had the student learning more than what was thought. A great course if one is working in the environmnetal field.

This course has valuable information, bringing different decision-making tools relevant to environmental management e.g. Cost-benefit analysis and Technology assessment.
Good content and well structured. Lecturers are clear and the questions in the exams really make you think and learn the topic to its fullest.
Excellent introduction to environmental management and ethical considerations.
The curriculum was well structured - as a beginner in this field, I have absorbed a lot out of this course. If I may suggest, it would be nice to have a list of sources e.g. reading materials, for further studies.
This course is one of the best courses I have completed on coursera. The design where I have to apply what I have learned and make models providing for the solutions to a particular environmental dilemma made me think if I had any new solution. It draws out a lot of interconnected dimensions why we are not able to find viable solutions to environmental issues. I would request the professors to add another module on identifying the stakeholders and designing an assignment for the participants on that module. Enjoyed and learned a lot. Thank you to my co-participants for reviewing my work .
Environmental Management & Ethics explores the integration of ethical principles in managing natural resources and addressing environmental issues. It emphasizes sustainable practices, promoting a balance between human development and ecological preservation. The field also encourages responsible decision-making, ensuring that environmental policies are fair, just, and beneficial to future generations.
This was a very informative course. A lot of new terms and skills learned. The content coupled with multiple choice always required a second look to really grasp terms. The essay writing and reviewing really helps in expanding one's analysis. But in the end it all come together in the final essay where you can apply the management skill to any environmental issue.
