Oxford!

Yesterday I was accepted to the MPhil program in Geography and the Environment at Oxford.  The description from the website says:

The MPhil in Geography and the Environment is a two-year course designed for high-flying master's candidates who wish to include a substantial research component in their masters level studies. In the first year, candidates take the coursework associated with either the MSc in Nature, Society and Environmental Policy or the MSc in Biodiversity, Conservation and Management.

I'm still waiting on funding decisions before I make any decisions, but if I attend, my coursework during year 1 will be from the MSc in Nature, Society, and Environmental Policy.  The description of that is below:

The MSc in Nature, Society and Environmental Policy equips students with a theoretically sophisticated and empirically grounded understanding of the dynamic relations between environment, society and policy. It recognizes that responding to profound political and environmental challenges requires a new generation of researchers and policy professionals who are able to think in innovative, rigorous and flexible ways across disciplinary and sectoral boundaries.
