Program Description
The Integrated Sustainability Certificate seeks to empower students with a deeper understanding of system resilience, development of an interdisciplinary perspective, and acquisition of smart management fundamentals, thus equipping graduates with skills and experiences to lead the transformation to a sustainable global society, environment and economy.
Rationale: Today's business models are dependent upon unprecedented levels of economic growth and innovation. However, they have also put unforeseen strains on the environment, society and the very future of prosperity on the planet. In order to alter this trajectory, we must fundamentally reorient the communities, organizations and markets in which we live and work. University classes provide skill sets for fostering sustainability and can provide a creative toolkit for addressing some of our most pressing global challenges. Completion of the Integrated Sustainability Certificate enables students to practice these skills and fosters a deeper understanding of the breadth of resilient solutions tailored for each situation.
SMALL CHANGES CAN CREATE A BETTER WORLD!
