Sustainable Future Program
McMaster has developed the Sustainable Future Program for students interested in learning more about sustainability while having the opportunity to engage in experiential learning through developing and implementing a real-world sustainability initiative. The Sustainable Future Program (SFP) aims to build reciprocal relationships between students, community members and McMaster University to engage all parties in the journey towards a sustainable future.
Founded in 2012, the first major initiative of the program was the development of the Undergraduate Course: SUSTAIN 2A03: The Sustainable Future Project, which aims to create more knowledgeable and more effective change agents.
The success of this inaugural course had led to the development of Sustain 3A03, which will be offered starting September 2013.
Courses in the program are open to students from all faculties. Each course provides students with the opportunity interdisciplinary, student-led, community-based and experiential education focused on sustainability.
