Interfaculty Program in Sustainability, Science and Society (54 credits)
The SSS program finds its strength聽in the way classes are structured around the three thematic pillars:聽Science & Technology, Economics & Policy, and Ethics & Equity. Within each of these pillars students take聽6 credits.
Interfaculty Program in Environment (54 credits)
The major difference from SSS is that the Environment program allows for聽more flexibility when choosing complementary courses. Students聽can choose any course聽from 12 areas, and students can聽concentrate credits in any particular area or combination of areas. Thus the Environment program is less structured than SSS.
Managing for Sustainability (39 credits)
This program focuses on business management, strategy, and organization as it relates to sustainability. As such there is less focus on the biophysical or ecological underpinnings of sustainability issues, but a greater emphasis on sustainability challenges and the role of sustainability in the private sector.
