Center for Leadership in Global Sustainability
The Executive Master of Natural Resources (XMNR) is an accelerated graduate degree program for professionals that takes place over three semesters within one year. The program is taught as a hybrid of in-person/virtual meeting* and online individual and small-group work. Students gather on campus in the Washington, D.C. metro area five times a year for three-day interactive study weekends, convene six times virtually for two-day meetings, and participate in a 10-day Global Study trip.
Our innovative, interdisciplinary curriculum focuses on the theme of “leadership for sustainability” in the context of climate change. We believe that everyone can have greater influence and bring innovation to the workplace and their communities at local to global scales, regardless of job title. We teach practical knowledge and skills that students can apply and practice at work to improve their performance immediately. We have a proven track record of success helping students achieve their career change and advancement goals.
