Blog Archive Earn a Sustainability Certificate at MIT Sloan
Blog Archive Earn a Sustainability Certificate at MIT Sloan Sustainability is at the heart of MIT Sloanâs nonprofit/social entrepreneurship curriculum. In 2007, the school launched the Sustainability Initiative (formerly called the Initiative for Sustainable Business and Society), whose goal is âto inspire change by engaging people in open dialogue around sustainability issues and challenging them to consider their own values related to social justice, care for future generations, and the flourishing of life,â according to its Web site. The initiative serves as an umbrella for the many components that fall under its purview, including the âStrategies for Sustainable Businessâ lab course, the âSystem Dynamicsâ course, the Sustainability Lunch Series, and an internship program. In 2010, Sloan announced its third specialty certificate option, the Sustainability Certificate. Open to any masterâs level MIT student as an add-on to an existing degree program, the offering âviews sustainability as a function of the interdependent dynamics of economic, societal, and environmental systems, where success overall is influenced by success across all areas and not upon a single factor,â reported a 2010 MIT Newsroom article. In addition to receiving the certificate along with their MBA, students who pursue it are given access to Summer Sustainability Internships and alumni events.
