Department of Geography and Environmental Sustainability
Knowledge of environmental sustainability, integrating understanding of the earth’s physical system with environmental economics, policy analysis, and effective planning, is essential to a world threatened by ongoing environmental degradation. The Master of Science program in Environmental Sustainability has three objectives. One objective is to provide students with a cross-disciplinary understanding of the theory and practice of sustainability. A second objective is to educate and equip students with the analytical and policy skill set to help organizations, businesses, institutions, and communities to understand, adapt, and implement sustainability strategies. The program is also designed to produce graduates whose expertise will drive the next phase of intellectual, organizational, and societal thinking on environmental sustainability.
