The program will prepare graduates to be educators and leaders who hold a passion for transforming systems of teaching and learning. The curriculum is intended to provide students the opportunity to actively engage in coursework, research and professional practice in the field of sustainability.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the required student residency was successfully delivered in an online format over four days in June.
