What interested you in the MES program?

The MES program integrates core courses on environment and sustainability and different concentrations, allowing us to choose what we want to learn based on our interests and preferences. The research component in this program also interested me, as it will provide me with hands-on experience on the methodologies that can help transit to a low-carbon, more sustainable, and resilient future.

 

What do you hope to gain from the MES program?

I hope to gain in-depth and multidisciplinary knowledge on current environmental issues and practical real-life experience that is relevant to sustainable development.

Future Aspirations (career, education, etc.)

Upon successful completion of the program, I plan to work as a sustainability consultant.
