The Ecosystem Sustainability program includes core study in biophysical/ecosystem science and applications to global change and sustainability issues. Maintaining ecosystem services in the face of global challenges such as climate change, population growth, globalization, land use intensification, and invasive species requires core competency in ecosystem science coupled with the ability to effectively communicate and work with experts from a variety of disciplines. Our program will provide students with the training to develop and implement solutions to global problems related to water resources, food supplies, energy, greenhouse gas management, land use change, and climate change.
