Environmental Management Concentration

The Concentration in Environmental Management is a collaboration between the department of Environmental Sciences in Emory College and the Goizueta Business School BBA Program. Participation is limited to BBA students and students who are Environmental Sciences majors.

This concentration provides knowledge, competencies and experiences for ENVS BA or BS and BBA students interested in pursuing careers in environmental management.

BBA students will build a foundation in the fundamentals of environmental science and environmental policy. BBA students will develop a framework for understanding environmental systems and a foundation in understanding the impacts and intersections of business decisions and environmental systems.

Environmental Sciences (ENVS) students who complete the concentration will acquire grounding in business principles and practices in the fields of management, marketing, finance and strategy. ENVS students will acquire methodologies and approaches that are transferrable to business, non-profit and government work environments.

Participation is strictly limited to BBA students or Emory College students who are Environmental Sciences majors.  The Environment and Sustainability Management Concentration will be awarded only to those participants who successfully complete a major in Environmental Sciences or the requirements for BBA degree. 

Important notes:

1. Students who are matriculated in the Goizueta Business minor are NOT eligible to participate in the Environmental Management Concentration. Students may pursue either a concentration OR a business minor, but not both.

2. Students pursuing the ENVS Sustainability Sciences Minor (SUSTSCIMIN) would NOT be eligible to participate in the Environmental Management Concentration.

3. Students pursuing the ENVS general minor (ENVSMIN) may participate in the minor and the Environmental Management Concentration with the following requirements: Students may only double count their core Concentration coursework (ENVS 120,130 or 140 & ENVS 250, 260 or 270) towards their minor, but none of their other ENVS coursework will be double counted. Concentration students will need to complete two electives, ENVS 491 and the Environmental Management Capstone.
