Ph.D. in Environment and Sustainability
Overview
Our Environment and Sustainability Ph.D. equips students with diverse perspectives to develop profound new ideas, knowledge and approaches to the most important concerns facing people and the planet. The program provides training to develop deep understandings of the structures of current environment and sustainability issues today and to develop analytical research to address them. This requires learning in multiple disciplines and how they, together, can better provide greater knowledge to bear to the social, environmental, political, scientific and economic factors creating the situation we face today. Our goal is to prepare students for a range of careers in academia, as well as public and private sectors.

“I feel my Ph.D. is serving me well for this private sector role. It’s given me a fluency and critical eye by which I can evaluate new climate tech companies that are popping up, seemingly by the dozen every day, and take them to task and assess their strengths and weaknesses”
