Course is highly interdisciplinary, seamlessly crossing disciplinary boundaries and offer a "front-loaded" approach. It is introducing students to the science of the Earth and its living and nonliving systems as well as how humans interact with Earth and its natural systems and how humans can use powerful tools, such as policy and communication to harm or help those systems. It provides a broad understanding of complex issues involved in global change and global sustainability and enables students to use quantitative tools in approaching global change issues. The main expectations are to advance awareness of the magnitude and consequences of global changes and to train the next generation of problem-solvers who will adequately address the phenomena.
