The Master of Corporate Environmental and Sustainability Management is an innovative masters program designed to meet the growing need for skilled professionals that have competencies in both business and environmental/sustainability management and who understand the nexus between the two. It is vocationally oriented and flexible to accommodate students who have only business or environmental backgrounds, people with significant industry experience, and people wishing to move into the field. It includes a research component, which can be completed as a workplace or internship. The program draws on the faculty's highly regarded research program in corporate sustainability and socially responsible investment.

After successful completion of 24 points, students may apply to exit the program with a Graduate Certificate in Corporate Environmental and Sustainability Management, or after successful completion of 48 points with a Graduate Diploma in Corporate Environmental and Sustainability Management.
