The
School of Environment and Sustainability (SENS) is an international model of
excellence and destination site for interdisciplinary, problem-oriented and
experience-based learning for issues dealing with environment and
sustainability. We aim to provide high-quality mentorship of interdisciplinary
researchers and practitioners within sustainability education. Our faculty
bridge multiple disciplines across the natural, physical and social sciences,
as well as the humanities and engineering to address the most challenging
environmental and sustainability issues faced by society.
SENS offers
three
degree options for students wishing to engage in our dynamic educational model.
In addition to thesis-based master's and doctoral programs, SENS offers a unique
one-year, course-based master’s program centered on a community-based research
project. Upon graduation, we aim for our students to have mastered the
substantive and transferable skills set that are essential for dealing with the
complex, uncertain and multifaceted environmental challenges confronting the
world today.
