a range of careers in environmental sustainability. Our unique curriculum is designed to integrate physical and natural sciences, social science, project management, and business.<\/p>\n<p>Our field-oriented curriculum takes advantage of the unique environmental setting of our region and provides opportunities to work with local agencies and businesses. Southern Oregon, with its renewable energy industry, environmental non-profits, federal resource management agencies, and environmental planning leadership is the perfect location to train as a sustainability professional, climate change analyst, consultant, corporate sustainability specialist, environmental planner, and more.<\/p>\n<p>The Sustainability Program encourages and gives academic credit for work experiences with governmental entities, local agencies and businesses that provide a wide variety of real-world applications of the concepts learned in the classroom. These experiences are carried in defined practicum and internship opportunities which include work in on- or off-campus settings.
