University of Colorado Boulder will launch a new nine-month Master of Science in Sustainable Business in fall 2026, enrolling an initial cohort of about 25 students. The Leeds School of Business is rolling out the degree alongside a parallel Master of Science in Sustainable Engineering, creating an interdisciplinary pipeline across business, engineering, and the natural sciences. The program shares a six-course core with the engineering track, bringing together topics such as environmental systems, policy design, leadership for sustainability transitions, sustainable technology design, and data analysis for sustainability decision-making. CU-Boulder is positioning the degree as a fast, two-track pathway designed to meet demand from industry partners in the region. Associate Dean Kristi Ryujin emphasized that the university’s sustainability roots and local ecosystem support the program’s placement. For prospective students and employers, the key change is structure and speed: a compressed, cross-college master’s format aimed at producing graduates ready to work across managerial and technical sustainability roles.
