Environmental Management and Sustainability
Start from April 2019
Overview of the Department
“Environment” is the keyword to think about a sustainable society: Strongest social science department with integration of arts and sciences
We will guide students to solve the problems facing society and the environment with advanced practical abilities and ensure that they acquire the ability to plan and draft policies to encourage environmentally friendly corporate activities and consumer behavior. We will do this through two areas: the environment management field in which our students will acquire accurate environmental management expertise toward a sustainable society and the environmental policy field in which our students will learn about legislation and environmental policies to solve environmental problems. We will also provide classes related to sustainable supply chains and business management.
