MSc student stories
Hear from students across the suite of master's programmes.
MSc in Geographic Data Science: Ella Murphy
I am currently studying for an MSc in Geographic Data Science within the University of Liverpool's Environmental Sciences department. I chose this programme because of its strong focus on spatial data analysis, GIS, and the intersection of data science with real-world societal challenges, which aligns with my passion for understanding social inequalities through geospatial methods.
MSc Environmental Assessment and Management: Jittrachon Jetiyanan
With a background in pharmacy from Bangkok, Thailand, I made the decision to transition into the environmental field — an area I’ve long been passionate about and which is now a critical global priority. Choosing to study a master’s at the University of Liverpool Environmental Sciences has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve made.
MCD in Urban Design and Planning: Matthew Richardson
The best part of studying this programme is its strong focus on developing practical skills that can be used in real-world practice. For instance, I have learnt how to use a range of spatial analysis and visualisation tools, as well as many techniques to help with the analysis, design and delivery of real-world projects.
