Short and sweet: What you can expect from a degree in Sustainability Management
Why study Sustainability Management?
Are you passionate about sustainable development and eager to drive meaningful? The Sustainability Management degree programme equips you with the skills to shape and lead sustainability transformations in a dynamic and evolving world.
The degree programme adopts a holistic approach integration of the three central dimensions of sustainability (environmental, economy, social). Grounded in the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it empowers you to actively contribute to sustainability transformations and become an effective “Change Agent”.
Finding a balance between environmental, economic and social responsibility in times of multiple crises, understanding systemic interrelationships and developing practical solutions-all of this is crucial in order to help shape transformation processes in the interests of sustainable development. In the bachelor’s program in Sustainability Management, you will gain in-depth knowledge that will enable you to better understand the complexity of the necessary sustainability transformations and actively support them.
Modules such as Environmental Economics & Governance, Psychology of Sustainability or Sustainability and Climate will give you a holistic understanding of sustainability.
During the six-semester degree programme, you will learn to take responsibility for sustainability transformation and get actively involved, for example by working on real-life practical problems or through sustainability engagement activities.
The special thing about this degree programme:
- Interdisciplinary degree programme with a generalist sustainability orientation (enviromental - economic - social)
- Future skills and key competencies in the context of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)
- Practical, project-based teaching formats that address real-world challenges
- Promoting sustainable commitment and social responsibility as integral components of the curriculum
- You can complete the internship semester in Germany and abroad
This will ensure that you are fully prepared for your professional career in sustainability management at national and international companies, as well as at public institutions, non-profit organisations (NGOs), or in your own start-up…
