Climate Change Solutions

Earth’s climate is changing with far-reaching consequences. The challenges presented by climate change are large and broad, and for students to become leaders that pioneer solutions a breadth of expertise is needed. In the Climate Change Solutions Graduate Certificate Program, students will address the physical basis of changing climate, its impacts on humanity and be introduced to engineering solutions. The core courses establish a knowledge of climate science and the effects of warming on society, strategies for slowing and reversing the amount of warming that will be realized, and methods for responding to the growing consequences of climate change. The three core courses cross the formal framework of climate change, mitigation, and adaptation.

The Climate Change Solutions Graduate Certificate Program was developed in partnership between Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering (CLaSP) and the School for Environment and Sustainability and is designed for students already enrolled in a graduate degree program at the University of Michigan. Master’s or doctoral students from any field, CoE, SEAS, LSA and the professional schools, are welcome to apply.
