Sustainability Studies Bachelor of Arts

Sustainability Studies at APU is the right program for you if you are interested in sustainability approaches and the environment from interdisciplinary perspectives in the humanities and social sciences. SUS is a good choice for rural Alaskan students preparing to develop sustainable development in their home communities. The degree program's flexibility makes SUS an efficient option for transfer students seeking to maximize credits earned at another institution.

Under the direction of Peter Gordon Gould, an Unangax from the village of Unga, Alaska Methodist University (AMU) offered its first classes in 1960. AMU was renamed in 1978 to Alaska Pacific University (APU) but remained a Methodist-affiliated institution. It retains its commitment to its heritage of Alaska Native education while emphasising rigorous academics and challenging fieldwork in the arts and sciences.
