Sustainability Science, B.S.

To fulfill major requirements, students must complete:

• EES-112 Environmental Science
• SUS-120 Principles of Sustainability Science
• SUS-241 Social Systems
• SUS-242 Dynamic System Modeling
• SUS-474 Senior Capstone
• SUS-472 Research and Analysis

• or

• SUS-473 Sustainability Science Practicum

a calculus course:

which fulfills the Mathematical and Formal Reasoning (MR) general education requirement for Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree candidates.

• MTH-120 Introduction to Statistics  and MTH-145 Calculus for Management, Life and Social Sciences  or
• MTH-150 Analytic Geometry and Calculus I

Six additional electives numbered 200 or above:

• at least 3 with SUS prefix
• at least 1 with EES prefix.
• Courses outside the department that fits the students’ personal pathway may be selected by working with the academic advisor and approval of the department chair.

Further considerations

It is strongly recommended that courses used to fulfill major requirements be chosen in consultation with a faculty advisor and intended academic or professional pathways.

Students interested in environmental and/or sustainability issues, but not wishing to major in the sciences may complete an interdisciplinary minor in Environmental Studies or B.A. in Earth and Environmental Sciences. Sustainability Science majors may also fulfill the requirements for the Environmental Studies interdisciplinary minor.
