A brief description of the institution’s program(s) to encourage student research in sustainability:
The certificate in Environmental Sustainability and Business consists of a supporting course structure (at the 100 and 200 level) that is complementary to the campus’ existing general education requirements, consistent with current credit load requirements and, thereby, will not delay student graduation. Welladvised students will be able to meet the supporting course requirements of the certificate by satisfying the existing campus general education program.
The main component of the certificate program is comprised of 16 credits at the upper level (300 and 400 numbered),
courses including an intensive business internship or co-op experience. It is the internship/co-op experience that ensures our EMBI certificate is not just “one more
certificate” that carries little meaning to employers.
The certificate is available for students in all academic programs.
Past internships and co-ops have required participants to conduct independent research both in the lab as well as with literature reviews on sustainability focused topics.
