Sustainability

Certificate

The sustainability of the earth’s environment is crucial to the survival of all living organisms, including our human, social, and economic systems. The Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Sustainability will provide coursework that focuses on the endurance of the environment and the associated human and economic implications. Because of the breadth of this topic, the curriculum will consist of three core courses that address the three pillars of sustainability: people, planet, and profit. Thus, the core will address the ecological, sociological, and economic aspects of sustainability. In addition, students will choose two sustainability elective courses that focus on the natural sciences, social sciences, or economics.
