Minor in Sustainability Studies
The aim of the Minor in Sustainability Studies is to help students understand the ways in which these three concerns are interrelated and to explore how they best can be pursued at local, national, and global scales.
The Minor is thoroughly interdisciplinary, benefiting from the teaching and research of faculty from multiple departments and colleges. It is explicitly designed to complement any major area of study. It has two core course requirements. Students then
select 4 or 5 courses from a menu that spans multiple disciplines to gain a broad exposure to sustainability-related curricula.

Sustainable Curriculum Development Report
To determine the extent of environmental, social, and economic sustainability
related courses taught at the University of Florida, the staff of the Sustainability
Task Force performed a catalogue survey of courses.
This survey was based on currently
published course descriptions, department-specific recommended sustainability electives, and
course instructors' web-based
material. While this is not necessarily a comprehensive method
of obtaining the distribution of
courses that address sustainability, this technique does provide
an idea of the level of sustainability that is projected in
course descriptions.
A more thorough survey is clearly needed
to fully assess the
true level of sustainability in all University of Florida courses. Below is a list of the courses that was developed from this report:
