在这里学什么？

Housed in the College of Arts and Sciences, the majors add to the College's academic offerings in sustainability that currently include a minor in sustainability and a 12-credit-hour graduate certificate in sustainability. The School of Engineering also has a master's program in renewable and clean energy.

Carter Creviston, a student from Cincinnati who just wrapped up his first year at UD, plans to switch to the new major this fall.

"Ever since I was a little kid, I have been interested in helping the environment, often doing small things to help like sorting recyclables at my house and at school. I had no idea my interest in helping the environment would be what I dedicate my college education and, hopefully, my life to," Creviston said. "Very early into college I decided I wanted to get the sustainability minor. However, when I learned there was a major in the works, I was immediately intrigued. I am incredibly excited to pursue the major, especially at a university that is among the top in the nation in sustainability efforts."

The bachelor of science degree will have tracks in energy and sustainable watersheds and will involve courses in biology, geology, economics, chemistry, political science, math and engineering, among others. It also could benefits students going on to be paralegals or lawyers in sustainability fields.

The bachelor of arts degree will have tracks in food studies and urban sustainability and include courses in data analysis, statistics, geographical information systems, ecology, advanced writing and philosophy, among others.

"We are placing vocation and community-based hands-on learning at the center of the curriculum," said Rebecca Potter, director of the sustainability program. "These programs will provide students a foundation for using sustainability to serve others regardless of their career paths."

The sustainability degrees are intentionally designed to complement other majors, Potter added. For example, she said students eyeing careers with environmental protection agencies can easily double major in environmental biology and sustainability. A double major in history or sociology and sustainability could suit future urban planners. Students pursuing nonprofit careers, especially combating food deserts, could benefit from a philosophy-sustainability double major.
