Things to Know

Most four-year colleges offer an environmental sustainability degree in one form or another. Sometimes it is a stand-alone bachelor's degree, and other times it is a minor, or an area of emphasis. The TCC program is designed specifically for students to transfer to UWT and earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in Environmental Sustainability. Students who intend to transfer somewhere other than UWT should consult with an environmental sustainability advisor to adjust their plan of study.
