Department of Geology, Environment and Sustainability
The Masters in Sustainability program integrates environmental, economic, social, philosophical, and ethical themes of sustainability. Our 30 s.h. program is designed to give students real world, hands-on experiences solving sustainability problems. Students in this sustainability program may attend full- or part-time.
Sustainability is often defined as using resources wisely now to ensure the quality of life for future generations. However, this program delves deeper into the concepts of sustainability and asks students to seek different ways of analyzing and achieving sustainability in different settings. This sustainability program also takes a balanced approach in trying to understand how to make developed countries more sustainable while also addressing the real-world sustainability crisis that exists in the developing world. Students are required to complete either a thesis or an internship to complete the sustainability degree.
