Dr Paul Jeffrey, Centre for Water Science, Sustainable Systems Department

An opportunity has arisen for a high calibre graduate to undertake an MSc by Research in consumer attitudes to water conservation measures.

Awareness of water conservation issues continues to grow with increasing demands placed on water resources. Attitudes to water conservation measures are important influences on individual willingness to take action. Many of these attitudes are culturally based. With progressively heterogeneous societies, an understanding of the relationships between attitudes to water as a resource and commodity and possible responses to conservation initiatives is becoming increasingly important.
