Climate Change Diploma overview

The need for an interdisciplinary approach to challenges inherent in global climatic changes is recognized. It is essential that scientists, engineers, and future environmental decision-makers understand the fundamental causes and impacts of climate change and the potential mitigation and adaptation measures needed to respond to the challenge.

Scientists and engineers are encouraged to adopt an understanding of the wider environmental, socio-economic, and political aspects of climate change. This professional diploma is accredited by the Supreme Council of Universities and has a distinctive modular structure that provides sufficient flexibility to meet the wide variations in the background of entrants - and their respective individual career plans.
