We all know that our natural resources are finite and that solutions to climate change must be found. But where do you start if you want to contribute to these solutions? If you choose to study resource management at VU Amsterdam, you will examine the work processes of people in all kinds of different organisations. And you will analyse the materials they need on a daily basis to do their work well. You will also figure out the possible combinations of processes and results that have the most sustainable outcome. Step by step, you will unravel how a process works and how it can be improved, while paying special attention to people and the environment. In addition, you will study government decisions and look at the impact they have in the short and long term—in the Netherlands and also beyond our borders, as the environment is under threat everywhere.
When you study resource management, you can play a role in solving global environmental and sustainability issues. You will also learn about human behaviour in a variety of situations. And you will study communication between different departments, organisations and countries and how it can be improved. If you are looking for a programme that examines resource management thoroughly and meticulously and that provides solutions, then VU Amsterdam is the right place for you.
