A brief description of the incentive program(s):
In Fall 2019, the Sustainability Advisory Committee - an interdisciplinary committee of faculty and staff dedicated to developing sustainability curriculum and programs on campus - collaborated to develop the B.A./B.S. Sustainability and Coastal Resilience major. As part of this process, new Sustainability major courses were developed, including the following:
SUST 301 - Environmental and Coastal Resilience (3 credits)
SUST 302 - Sustainability and Community Resilience (3 credits)
SUST 310 - Methods and Tools in Sustainability (3 credits)
SUST 499 - Sustainability Capstone (3 credits)
The major was approved in 2020 and became effective in Spring 2021. Faculty participating in the committee were recognized through their service to the institution, which is one of three primary criteria for promotion, tenure and evaluation at CCU.
