The programme is a one-year Master’s degree intended specifically for career professionals and those wishing to combine their undergraduate and prior training with a specialised sustainability/leadership competence.
It is fair to say that holistic sustainability education is a relatively new field, and so far there are a limited number of programmes available around the world. We are not aware of any other programmes that offer the international, transdisciplinary, science-based approach combining strategic sustainable development and leadership studies, that the MSLS programme provides. In this sense, the MSLS programme is unique and world-leading.
In Swedish, the degree title is ‘Magisterprogram i strategiskt ledarskap för hållbarhet‘ and the english title is ‘Master of Science (one year) in Strategic Leadership Towards Sustainability’. The Swedish Institute provides additional information about the equivalency of Swedish degrees in other countries.
