Sustainability Studies (Certificate)
Rowan University
Description
The Sustainability Studies COGS offers students a credential demonstrating their understanding of applying sustainability concepts in the ‘real world’. Research in STEM fields has resulted in amazing advances in our societal ability to generate solutions to environmental challenges, but there is frequently a disconnect between the solutions and their implementation. The COGS in Sustainability Studies, and the courses that comprise the program, are aimed at helping STEM students understand avenues for implementing comprehensive sustainability solutions. Similarly, the COGS in Sustainability Studies will be a useful avenue for students pursuing graduate degrees in business, education, social sciences, humanities, or communication arts to strengthen their environment and sustainability skill set.
