Bærekraft (master)

The 120-credit master in sustainability takes an interdisciplinary approach to complex social and ecological problems. Students learn systems thinking and modelling, and an introduction to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and how they can be implemented in law and policy at local, national and international levels. The programme also compares different knowledge forms, such as law, science and politics. Students choose one of three specialisations: global societal challenges, climate and energy transition, or marine sustainability. The specialisation starts in the first semester and continues through the third and fourth. Students either write a 60-credit master's thesis or complete a 30-credit placement with a 30-credit report. Methods courses and a seminar series support the work.
