Leaders and managers across sectors are facing growing demands to drive social and environmental sustainability forward in their organisations and respond decisively to a growing global crisis – but how can we do this? We live in an increasingly complex world. The sustainability challenges we face exist at a nexus of interconnected stakeholders, systems, and perspectives. How can we develop and drive solutions for the biggest challenges of today and tomorrow in a context of rapid change and uncertainty?
The SuM-HSG enables students to accompany their bachelor studies at the University of St.Gallen with a certificate programme that provides the tools and skills to understand and effectively tackle complex sustainability challenges. Through coursework and applied projects, students will gain hands-on experience making decisions, collaborating across sectors and generations, and building practical interventions to drive progress on sustainability from a systemic perspective.
Starting in fall 2024, the SuM provides you with the tools and skills to understand and effectively tackle complex sustainability challenges in your future career. You will learn to build partnerships, make decisions, devise solutions, and implement initiatives essential to driving progress towards a sustainable future. The SuM, granting 24 ECTS, is open to students of all bachelor’s programmes at HSG.
Application is now open until end of June!
