Welcome - What is Sustainability? SUST 1000   What is Sustainability?
CREDIT HOURS: 6
Learning to live sustainably is humanity’s greatest and most exciting challenge. The first step is seeing ourselves – our histories, perceptions, intentions, and impacts – as integral to life on Earth. Using an interdisciplinary approach, we investigate the many conceptual frameworks that inform our understanding of sustainability. Through topics such as energy, water, land use, food, urbanization and social equity, we explore what sustainability means in our lives and to the planet. Students gain essential academic writing skills through participatory tutorials.
