educating future engineers. Today, Stevens also operates a School of Business, School of Systems Enterprises and College
of Arts & Letters.
This fall, Stevens will welcome the first class of studentsinto its newest graduate program: the Master of Science (M.S.) in
Sustainability Management. Offered through the Schaefer School of Engineering
& Science (SES), the master’s in sustainability management gives green advocates from a wide range of backgrounds the opportunity to innovate for environmental progress.
This new graduate program is
for students in science, engineering, architecture, planning, business, social science, communications, law and policy fields who want
to be a part of the rapidly-growing cadre of
trained sustainability experts and managers.
Program founder and director Dr. Dibyendu “Dibs” Sarkar believes this approach will serve to
bridge the gap between scientific progress on sustainability and social
implementation. “One thing that makes us different is that we adhere to
students’ basic academic preparation,” Dr. Sarkar commented. “They don’t have
to be engineers and we’re not trying to turn everyone into engineers. The whole
idea is that we want to put students on the same platform so they can
communicate across disciplines. Engineers can communicate their designs to
gifted communicators who can translate them for public consumption and impact.”
