Sustainability Minor

The minor in sustainability prepares students from any major to become environmentally literate citizens who can incorporate sustainable practices in their lives and careers. As an interdisciplinary program, it provides students with the opportunity to focus and refine the knowledge gained from their own fields of study by adding the perspective of other disciplines.

Minimum Grade Requirement: A minimum grade of C is required in any course in the Sustainability minor.

Residency Requirement: Students must complete at least 12 credits of the minor requirement at Marymount.
