The four core courses are Concepts and Principles of Sustainability, Economics and Finance for Sustainability, Systems Thinking: The key to sustainability, and Communicating the Value of Sustainability. After synthesizing this research, we have designed four new core courses for the MA degree. The proposed revisions are academically rigorous and position our degree and our students for success in the academic and workplace market. The revisions to the degree emerge from our analysis of other competitive programs across the country, our assessment of the core competencies of the College and our analysis of skills desired by employers for positions related to sustainability and green economy.
