Program Description Students in ASU's College of Global Futures are rethinking and reinventing the future of a world at risk. The school's programs encourage experiential learning, study abroad, research with faculty, community engagement and leadership development. The knowledge and solutions that are created today will shape the social and environmental quality of life for future generations. The School of Sustainability offers two degrees in sustainability: a BA and a BS. Both programs introduce students to the concept of sustainability in the context of real-world challenges and focus on developing practical solutions and interventions to some of the most pressing environmental, economic and social challenges of sustainability. Students learn to approach challenges with consideration of complex adaptive systems and resilience, interconnections and cascading effects across scales, management of trade-offs, ethics and values, stakeholder engagement, future visioning and scenario typologies for transitioning systems, and other cutting-edge frameworks. The Bachelor of Science is geared toward students interested in the more quantitative aspects of sustainability, such as those related to energy and materials, economics, and ecology and environmental science.
