Human activity can have complex and far-reaching effects on our fragile environment, creating a need for insightful environmental research and stewardship. In the 21st century, identifying environmental problems and developing and implementing sensible and practical solutions will increasingly depend upon research innovation and collaboration between industry, government, academics and communities. The Centre for Environment and Sustainability (CES), is an interdisciplinary initiative supported by the Faculty of Science (host faculty), Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Social Science, and other contributing faculties. It is home to the Undergraduate Environmental Science program, the Masters in Environment and Sustainability program and the Collaborative Environment and Sustainability program.
The Collaborative Program in Environment and Sustainability is an interdisciplinary enrichment program designed for current graduate students (MSc/MA/MESc or PhD) who wish to become specialists in specific aspects of environment and sustainability, and who also wish to gain an appreciation of the interdisciplinary nature of environmental problems and solutions. The student earns a degree in the home department plus credit for participation in the enrichment program. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
The Collaborative Environment and Sustainability Program is not a direct entry program. Graduate students may apply to the program following admission to and registration in a HOME Program (department), where the student will have a research supervisor, complete a research thesis and earn a graduate degree in a specific discipline. |
| Application Notes : | Masters students: admission is restricted to part-time and full-time students entering their first year of studies in the home department.
PhD students: admission is restricted to part-time and full-time students entering their first year of studies in a home department, but may seek entry to the program as late as the first term of their second full year of studies.
Students enrolled in one-year masters programs shall seek advice on program eligibility from the Collaborative Environment and Sustainability Program office before application. |
