University of New Brunswick, Fredericton
AC-4: Graduate Program

Institution offers at least one:

• Sustainability-focused program​ (major, degree program, or equivalent) for ​graduate students

  AND/OR

• Graduate-level sustainability-focused minor, concentration, or certificate (e.g., a concentration on sustainable business within an MBA program).

To count, a program, minor, concentration, or certificate must have a primary and explicit focus on the concept of sustainability or the interdependence of ecological systems and social/economic systems.

Extension certificates and other certificates that are not part of academic degree programs do not count for this credit; they are covered in the Continuing Education​ ​credit in Public Engagement.

This credit applies to all institutions that offer at least 25 distinct graduate programs. Institutions that offer fewer than 25 distinct graduate programs have a choice of either pursuing this credit or marking it as Not Applicable.

An institution earns the maximum of 3 points available for this credit for having at least one sustainability-focused degree program or the equivalent for graduate students. Partial points are available. An institution with no sustainability-focused degree program for graduate students that has at least one graduate-level sustainability-focused minor, concentration or certificate earns 1.5 points (half of the points available for this credit).

Report on current program status and offerings at the time of submission. Planned degree programs or degree programs that have been canceled do not count for this credit.
