Climate change is an existential crisis for humanity, and any solutions to the problems it poses must necessarily be multidisciplinary, drawing on expertise not just in multiple fields but in multiple modes of thinking. This certificate consists of 2 academic credits earned in climate-related coursework representing two different divisions (i.e., arts, humanities, natural sciences, social sciences) and a co-curricular credit earned through experiential work related to the climate emergency. Completion of the certificate will prepare you for future work related to climate but for informed, engaged citizenship.<\/p>\n
Please consult with the certificate advisors about additional options for courses, internships, and research opportunities.<\/p>\n
