Problems of global environmental sustainability and vulnerability have caught the attention of policy makers, the media, and citizens across the planet. Demand is rising for researchers and professionals who can work in these areas.

To become effective agents of environmental progress, students need interdisciplinary skills – training that incorporates humanistic, natural science, and social science perspectives and which can be applied to problems local to global in scale.

The Certificate on Humans and the Global Environment (CHANGE) helps graduate students understand and solve such problems. CHANGE is a 12-credit graduate certificate program and Ph.D. minor that can supplement any graduate degree program on campus. It is not available as a stand-alone graduate degree.
