What Makes us Special

We aim to assist students to develop skills to deal with environmental challenges and to seek integrative solutions to them. We recognize that sustainable solutions involve scientific, economic and social factors.  Our interdisciplinary program provides students with the skills to analyse, intelligently discuss and address environmental issues with economists, lawyers, managers, scientists, politicians and the community at large - indeed all categories of stakeholders involved in environmental issues.
