Program Overview
This Master’s program gives students the flexibility to earn a master’s degree while continuing to work full-time. RMA students learn how to build stakeholder capacity, practice effective communication strategies, and provide leadership and management to organizations and communities facing a myriad of challenges due to difficult resource management decisions, especially within the context of a changing climate. Students do this through a combination of weekend coursework and applied research projects with faculty, other students, and organizations working in this field.
The core curriculum classes meet online in the fall and spring semesters, with a 5-6 day intensive at the beginning of the first summer term, along with three immersive international field studies courses.
The ISDCC curriculum pathway can meet the requirements for the Professional Science Master’s (PSM) designation based on the electives the student selects. The required courses meet the 18 required STEM credits and 7 of the 12 required PLUS credits for PSM designation. ISDCC students would need to ensure their elective courses include 5 additional PLUS credits. This requires an ISDCC student taking additional credits above the required 30 degree program.
