See what graduate programs you can take to expand your skills and knowledge in a specific area of sustainability.
UBC offers research-based and professional graduate sustainability programs. Research-based graduate programs are thesis-based. Professional programs are course-based and do not require a thesis. Instead, they often include capstone projects and work placements.
