For a degree program that’s more focused on sustainability, there is the Science Learning and Public Engagement major and minor for undergraduate students and the Master’s in Sustainability in the Urban Environment for graduate students.

Science Learning and Public Engagement (SLPE), a new education major and minor created by Professor Yael Wyner, offers students multiple opportunities to engage with the vibrant sustainability community in NYC. The program prepares students for careers in informal science education and engagement positions in the new green economy that is blossoming in NYC’s non-profit organizations, museums, government policy, renewable energy, and much more. The major and minor offers a sustainability track, as well as several other science tracks.

The Master’s in Sustainability in the Urban Environment interdisciplinary program offers students with a desire to dive deeper into environmental policy the opportunity to design and conduct their own research. Notable research has been done by previous master’s students — namely: Alex Klein, Yael Amron, Jerilys Perez, and Oscar Guatemala — whose work can be found here.
