Sustainability Management (MS)
Stevens Institute of Technology
Description
The M.S. in Sustainability Management is for students in science, engineering, architecture, planning, business, social science, communications, law and policy fields who want to be a part of the relatively new, but rapidly-growing cadre of trained sustainability experts and managers. The program intends to turn their passion for sustainability into impactful careers by devising a dynamic, mission-driven curriculum that focuses on application of sustainability principles in all spheres of life – environmental, economic, social – for protection of the environment and earth’s natural resources, in promoting economic development without impacting the environment, and in implementing practical solutions based on principles of social inclusion, thus ensuring a better quality of life for all members of the society. Students benefit from close interaction with an internationally recognized faculty with diverse educational and professional backgrounds; hybrid format of many classes that are offered in the evenings; and networking opportunities with industry and academic experts via participation in the weekly Sustainability Seminar Series. Graduates of the program will be well positioned to lead the workforce in devising and implementing sustainable strategies for development in business, non-profit organizations, and in the public sector (municipal government to federal).
