So, what is a Master in Social Sustainability Studies? Sustainability refers to how long something can last and social sustainability studies look at how long something can last in a growing human population. This includes things such as medicine, food and livable land. You can expect to learn more about climate change, land management and energy consumption. To prepare for this degree, consider completing a business, engineering or social structures degree.
Within a sustainability program, some skills you can learn are deductive reasoning, management and decision-making. With good reasoning skills, you can optimize your daily life while management and decision-making skills help you promote positive change in a group setting.
The cost of a master's degree depends on many things, including how many courses you can take online and where your chosen school is located. It is also important to find out what sort of book costs and registration fees you will be paying. As you finalize your budget, double check whether there are stipends and other financial aid available.
