What is an MA in Green Studies? People pursuing this advanced degree typically focus on ways to support or protect the environment. Specialties within the field can include clean and efficient energy production, renewable resources, urban growing technology, water quality technology, climate change and global warming, carbon footprint management, consumer and corporate sustainability strategies, social responsibility and recycling. Clean transportation design and engineering are popular with many students. Courses can also cover urban planning and environmental development.

Graduate students in this field learn critical analysis and problem solving as they study how to make living and working environments more environmentally friendly. They may also gain presentation skills for communicating cutting-edge ideas, and leadership skills for directing change-management projects.

Tuition for graduate programs can vary from one university to another, depending on the size and location of the school. Fees can also fluctuate based on whether classes are delivered in-person or online. The availability of student internships may also impact program costs.

Graduates of green studies programs often find exciting career opportunities with government agencies as department directors, senior analysts or environmental auditors.
