Energy independence and an educated workforce are critical to a prosperous future for Wisconsin. To respond, the University of Wisconsin-Extension is charging in with a bold new degree: the nation’s first online sustainable management bachelor’s degree.
For the first time, University of Wisconsin-Extension has brought together the strengths of four campuses UW-Parkside, UW-River Falls, UW-Stout and UW-Superior‹to craft a degree program that equips workers with the management skills they will need to lead sustainable business initiatives. . . .
The sustainable management degree takes the theories of sustainability and makes them tangible in the business setting, through a hands-on, problem-solving approach. By learning the fundamentals of the “Triple Bottom Line,” graduates can immediately start helping their companies create profits, preserve the environment, and improve their surrounding communities.
