Study under academically credentialed and real-world sustainability practitioners. Gain field experience to see how theories become tangible and how problems become solutions. Grow and network with your cohort to eventually participate in a growing discipline that impacts every sector.
By the time you’re finished, you’ll be equipped with a holistic approach that helps focus on the triple bottom line: people, profit and planet. Add regenerative energy to your community and the world.
Our degree grounds you in the three pillars of sustainability: natural sciences and environmental studies, business and economics, and social sciences. Despite their diverse interests and aspirations, our students share a passion for managing people and projects to solve sustainability problems.
