PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The MSAS Concentration in Sustainable Design is a 36-credit nonprofessional graduate degree program that focuses on social, ecological, and environmental issues related to resilient and regenerative planning and urbanism. The Sustainable Design curriculum also examines the role of design, technology, public policy, and environmental practices in developing resilient communities and cities.
The Sustainable Design concentration provides students with the opportunity to engage in specialized investigations that confront twenty-first century environmental, social, and economic challenges. A graduate of the program will understand the positive impact of sustainability policy, and actively engage with development and planning of the built environment, natural systems, and societal issues. The program emphasizes the role of sustainability and regenerative practices on contemporary urban issues and the future of cities.
The program welcomes applications from both research and practice-oriented candidates and prepares students for careers as sustainability experts in design, construction, real estate, and as resilience officers and other sustainability roles in corporate firms, government, academia and not-for-profit organizations.
