The Earth, Society & Environmental Sustainability program responds to the growing demand for courses that concentrate on the key issues associated with sustainability and the environment. Students may choose from two concentrations: Society and Environment (for those with a natural science background or focus) or Society in the Earth System (for students with a social sciences or general background). Students then have the opportunity to specialize in several different areas, including Sustainable Business, Environmental Informatics, and Sustainable Societies. Students interested in the program must apply to the University of Illinois as a transfer student. Before enrolling to the program, you will need to make sure your personal computer meets the necessary technology requirements by reviewing your software and hardware standards.

The online program is open to students transferring to the University of Illinois. You will need to have at least one year (about 30 credit hours of college credit) of previous work. The only coursework that you need to have taken is composition 1 (or have met this requirement through a sufficiently high ACT score or through AP credit). There are no other specific requirements, although if you are interested in the "Science in the Earth System" concentration (see below), we highly recommend at least a semester of chemistry with lab, and a semester of physics with lab (we don't offer lab courses online, and these are needed for this concentration). Many of our transfer students have an Associates Degree in Arts or in Science, but this is not required. Transfer students have often started Bachelor degrees at other institutions and wish to complete at Illinois - this is perfectly fine!
