可持续发展概述

可持续性 has grown from a niche field to an increasingly crucial discipline impacting all aspects of society. That’s why Chatham has developed four unique tracks within our Bachelor of 可持续性 program: Sustainable Energy & Urban Systems, Natural Resource Management, Sustainable Business, and a Self-Designed track.

项目学校

我们的世界变化太快了.  Problems we face – climate change, social injustice, biodiversity loss – are wickedly complex. But learning to understand them is a powerful way to understand the world. This degree will reveal the overlapping systems (ecology, 经济学, 文化, 政治)驱动社会.  At 伊甸堂校园 you’ll get your hands dirty and come away with experience to face the future. 

— Lou Leonard, JD, Dean, 福克可持续发展学院 & 环境
