A new graduate course is being launched at Memorial University—and it’s already seeing interest from students.
The Climate Change and Sustainable Employment Relations program will be offered by the Faculty of Business and Administration as well as the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences.
It will target students from across Memorial University from its Master of Business Administration and Master of Employer Relations Programs to graduate-level social and environmental sciences courses.
Thirty students are already registered in the course.
Associate professor of international business and labour relations, Dr. John Peters, says the course represents a step forward in recognizing the responsibility to develop the professional education needed to keep global warming to 1.5 Celsius.
Environment Minister Bernard Davis will be among those on hand for the launch today at noon at the RBC Atrium in MUN’s Faculty of Business.
