Environmental Management Certificate Program
Graduate students in the Environmental Management Certificate program from across the University collaborate to tackle real-world problems with profound policy, scientific and business ramifications. Students engage in environmental challenges-including energy, climate change, food systems, depletion of natural resources and pollution-and learn to organize collaborative teams to complete a client-based project. Addressing these challenges requires an understanding of diverse disciplines.
The program spans traditional academic boundaries, allowing students to integrate broad perspectives, knowledge, skills and interconnections. Our goal is for students to achieve a coherent view of environmental issues through an interdisciplinary focus on the complex relationships among science, management and policy. Applications are accepted twice each year, usually the first Monday in February and first Monday in May.
The Environmental Management Graduate Certificate program offers students access to the University of Washington's world-class faculty and resources across multiple colleges and schools, including the Evans School of Public Affairs, Foster School of Business, the College of Engineering, and the College of the Environment.
The EM Certificate program offers students:
Eligibility
Students must be matriculated graduate or professional students to be eligible to apply to the Environmental Management Certificate program.
Admission Requirements
Prior to admission, students must have completed a one quarter upper-level or graduate-level course in each of the following:
