Business and Sustainability

Business operates in an increasingly complex setting. Environmental and social concerns are at the forefront of the new issues which are stretching the responsibilities of business and demanding new types of management thinking. These concerns first affected established industries in forestry products, chemicals and mining sectors. Today, however, they are impacting other manufacturers, retailing and service industries, and the financial sector.

One of the first of its kind in North America, the Erivan K. Haub Program in Business and Sustainability at Schulich is at the cutting edge of current best practice. The business and sustainability specialization equips students for general management and senior corporate positions, as well as for work in specialist environmental management or consulting posts.

The Erivan K. Haub Program in Business and Sustainability at Schulich is at the one of the longest established and best resourced business and sustainability initiatives worldwide. The Haub Program has built a significant presence in Canadian graduate and executive education. For more information about the Program see
The Business and Sustainability Website.
