A list or sample of the sustainability learning outcomes associated with degree, diploma or certificate programs (if not included in an inventory above):
Outcome #1. Articulate in detail the scientific, technical, political, and ethical complexities of a chosen environmental issue. Outcome #2. Provide informed, articulate distinctions between areas of substantial progress in environmental problem solving and areas lacking substantial progress, and elucidate opportunities for substantial future progress. Outcome #3. Offer a cogent response to the claim, Environmental issues are inherently transdisciplinary. They cannot be solved by resort to the domain of individual traditional academic disciplines. Rather, solutions require insights from the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences. Outcome #4. Upon reading an in-depth news article on an environmental policy issue or controversy, provide a detailed, sophisticated analysis of the likely political forces (laws, regulations, interest groups, state vs. federal relationships, etc.) that are involved in the resolution (or not) of the issue (beyond those that are explicitly mentioned in the article).
