Change. It's in your hands.
Complex global issues like food security, climate change and pollution touch virtually every person, every profession, everywhere. Solutions require passion, commitment and real knowledge.
Dalhousie is helping you find those solutions. Our Environment, Sustainability and Society (ESS) program, a Canadian first, is more than an academic offering. It's a whole new way of thinking.
History, theatre, management, community design, sociology, the sciences - anything that you have a passion for can be paired with ESS. Explore program options with the faculties of:
- Architecture and Planning
- Arts and Social Sciences
- Computer Science
- Management
- Science
- King's School of Journalism
Learn with professors from across campus as they debate real-world problems. Immerse yourself in hands-on work that matters -- in the community or boardroom, alongside citizens, NGOs and others.
Follow your passion. Change the world while you're at it.
