Why study Sustainability?
The micro-credential is an interdisciplinary sustainability credential open to any graduate student at UC. The micro-credential provides a pathway for students to take sustainability courses across the curriculum at the graduate level. This also will offer a credential for students in all disciplines or colleges interested in sustainability careers, which are growing in all industries. This also will help students be prepared to solve society’s complex “wicked problems” and sustainability challenges with interdisciplinary approaches. The micro-credential consists of 3-credit hour existing courses.
Admission Requirements
Instructions for submitting an application can be found at the Declare a Micro-Credential page.
Micro-credentials will help students stand out to employers seeking to hire in sustainability-related positions in fields such as business, construction, government, public affairs, technology, engineering, design, fashion, manufacturing, etc. We hope that this micro-credential can serve as a mini-minor for some of these graduate degree programs at UC. The micro-credential may also appeal to non-matriculated students who already have an undergraduate degree and do not wish to enroll in a full-time graduate program.
