Master of Science in Sustainability Management, MScSM
The new Master of Science in Sustainability Management (MScSM) at the University of Toronto Mississauga (UTM) proposes to educate students about managing businesses and organizations in a way that balances environmental, economic and social needs. This program will be a 20-month (five-session), full-time Master of Science program. The objectives of the program are to provide all students with a solid foundation in environmental science and management proficiencies, allowing them to bridge their previous education with the multidisciplinary requirements of the program. The MScSM will complement existing graduate programs in Management and Environment at the University of Toronto and will build on strengths in environment, management, accounting and economics at UTM. The program responds to a substantial growth in interest in sustainability, socially responsible business practices and employment in so-called “green jobs.”
The program will have two concentrations: one concentration will be in Management, and the other will be in Science. Students will self-select into one of the concentrations based on their preferences.
