Certificate in Environmental Affairs
The Certificate in Environmental Affairs program is a 15 credit hour program of study in environmental affairs.

Individuals currently employed in industry, nonprofit organizations, and the public sector in environmentally related positions who have technical backgrounds but who see greater insight and formal education on economic, policy, and legal issues related to the critical environmental issues will find the program particularly beneficial.
