      PhD Programmes in Social Sustainability Studies

      Social sustainability classes typically study the use of concepts from various disciplines to make evaluations about the sustainability of several different trends that are salient to humans. Classes often look at issues such as ethics, social movements, the environment, politics and land development.

      Canada is a North American country consisting of ten provinces and three territories. Located in the northern part of the continent, it extends from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean.

      The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
