In this programme, you will learn to identify the challenges of sustainability and view them in a multidisciplinary way, producing solutions which take all aspects of sustainability in society into consideration. You will also learn how to approach complex value chains in a purposeful, analytical and creative way in order to find answers to different aspects of sustainability.
Climate warming, weakening air quality, water pollution and waste are examples of current global sustainability challenges. Sometimes traditional technologies offer the best solutions, but we also need novel solutions to complex environmental problems. Solutions to these global challenges call for systems thinking. By understanding the broader context in which the challenges lie, we are able to identify more sustainable solutions.
