Green Ideas, Green Ideals
Antioch University New England (AUNE) is green to its roots. Over forty years of place-based education, environmental studies, and educating for sustainability attests to the fact that AUNE's DNA has always been green. Whether your concerns started years ago alongside ours, or with green issues now in the mainstream news, AUNE is the perfect place to come learn from experts who have been imbuing their teaching and training with green ideas and green ideals from the start.
Sustainability is at the heart of so much of what we do. Our Statement of Values states our abiding tenet: we embrace "ecological stewardship and social justice, cultivating local as well as global perspectives to educate students with diverse backgrounds and opinions to become leaders of change. "
From the ground-breaking social justice audit undertaken to measure how well we practice what we teach, to the institutional commitment to achieve carbon-neutrality by 2020, Antioch University New England constantly seeks to be an exemplar of its values.
Green Academics: Three Paths to a Greener World
In addition to an institutional commitment to sustainability and social justice, AUNE offers several academic programs specifically designed to apply these principles in various professional arenas.
Environmental Studies
Master's and PhD programs in multiple disciplines
Become an environmental leader who acts responsibly, compassionately, and creatively to address complex environmental issues.
MBA in Organizational and Environmental Sustainability (Green MBA)
Choose from weekend or accelerated options. The weekend option works best for those who need to fit getting their MBA in with a tight work schedule. The accelerated option (16-month completion) works best for those without 9 to 5 responsibilities.
Educating for Sustainability
Summer MEd concentration for educators
AUNE's Department of Education offers the Educating for Sustainability MEd, the first and only graduate program in the country that explicitly links sustainability and education. This program trains in-service educators nationally to apply sustainability at any grade level and every subject area.
