ABOUT SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability is an interdisciplinary field with an applied focus. Sustainability is about the interrelationships between the social, environmental, & economic elements of a thriving human community. Students in this field gain knowledge and skills for making sustainability an integral part of organizations and institutions and for transforming broader social, political and economic relations between people and the environment.
