The Blended Programme explores the environmental, social, and economic dimensions of sustainability. Defines and applies basic principles of sustainability to address today’s most pressing environmental and social challenges. It develops an understanding of how individual behavior of companies affect the community and global health. We approach sustainability from a multidisciplinary perspective by integrating faculty from across the curriculum, including public health, applied sciences, sociology, and economics.
