Students will dive into the challenges and solutions for climate change—environmental, economic, political, social—and build a strong foundation of knowledge and skills that equip graduates for the growing number of climate-related careers.

Climate change is the leading global environmental issue, but its impacts extend beyond the natural world, into business operations, politics and policy development, social justice movements, law and more. For students who find themselves trading the car for public transit, reviewing a company’s environmental initiatives or participating alongside millions of others in global climate marches, this specialization is for them. Trent University’s Climate Change Science & Policy specialization draws on faculty specialties in Trent’s School of the Environment and from affiliated departments, providing students with a robust, well-rounded education that could lead to a variety of careers supporting climate solutions that can have profound impacts on societies for future generations.
