Evidence is accumulating that linkages between environment and security dynamics are more important than previously thought. Governments, the public, corporations, and other organizations around the world need a clearer understanding of the related new risks and more effective responses. Columbia University’s new Environment, Peace, and Security Certification will prepare you to understand these rapidly changing connections between environment and security dynamics, and will equip you with tools for managing the risks.

The Environment, Peace and Security certification is comprised of six courses. Two core courses are offered one evening a week for one term each. Elective courses meet once a term from Friday morning through Sunday afternoon. Each term for two consecutive terms, you will take one core course and two elective courses.

The first course offerings begin in the Fall Semester 2016.  Applications are due March 2016 and May 2016.
